Post

Here's how it works:

You post of what you have done to your car when you know that no one else has done the same mod.

For instance: Mehdi did the HLSD swap, I did the Turbo 2.5L and so on... lets put together a good list. I know that a lot of people ask specific questions about certain things and it would give them a good reference point on who to look at for posts about a certain mod/subject. Also... bragging rights and to keep a history of where the mods/achievements originated... include the topic if one was created.

----- I will update as I can to the original post as people reply.

Do to some concerns, you must provide proof, either photos, forum posts where you figured it out, etc. I do not doubt you did the mod, but proof adds it to the list below.-----
