Money was tight at the time.. Rout 40 is a sick road, across NM and AZ its like being in a different world.

Wow, Duron... I've heard your name around for years but never knew you had a shop around here! If there's anyone who can answer the questions I have about going KA-T and help with my future project, it's gotta be you!Hopefully, I'll be calling / bringing ya some business soon! Congrats on having a daily driver making redonkulous pwr/trq and still be capable of driving thru the hottest states in the country during the hottest time of year! Now thats what I call a publicity stunt!

NO! I was acutally very suprised myself. He doesn't look any older than mid to late 40's. If he's in his 50's he ages very well but he just started having gray hairs on his head. Jim and Ben are acutally cool guys and they get alot done out of a small place.

definitely what I was thinking. I don't know if I'm just not seeing it but did you say how many miles you traversed? Props to jimwolf and his crew, they make some good stuff..I have a turbo ecu from them and it's probably that one thing that's saving my engine from going ka-boom.
