Photo journal of my trip to the perofrmance shoppE!

Other then using it of course. Check out my photo journal of my little trip to the performance shop.

On the way, i decided to see if anyone else has these guys crusing around their neighborhood.



A nicely done hatch i passed up on the freeway. I like the color. He had a tasteful very mild body kit, CF hood, and not much else visably except for his exhaust (which didnt have a very large tip at all, yea for him! [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] ).


AHhhhhhhhh... finally there. now that im waiting though, lest see whats parked out front.


sleeeepur!




His engine: LT1 5.7l V8 with a brand new (hadnt even driven it yet) installed Vortech SC set at 8 PSi. The guy was really cool, and really dug the lack of rice on my car [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]


turbo fokus... I had shots of the interior, but the glare form the windows screwed them up.


Inside the gargae...
OH YEA BABY!






they started this 1 up for me in the show room... man it sounded SWEEEEEEEEEEEET!


interior made by god him self...


for sale even!


That was fun, now i have some sweet pics, and a full tank of go gas! But what do I spy on the way home? Some rich bastard whos getting THIS shipped to his house.

Don't know about the 1/4 mile but 0-60 they are 5.7 secs. That's the slowest AMG I believe, the ML55 might be close.

Ok dude, did you go to the shop with a friend, or did you take that one picture while driving down the freeway at 65 miles an hour? 'Cause .. that's something I would do ...

Heh heh, crazy drivers rule.

I saw this video once on the internet with a guy who mounted a camera in his Ferrari, and took it up to a buck 40 on the highway! He was passing cars like CRAZY! Then I read at a different website with the same video that the police got a hold of the video and the guy was either fined or jailed. Whoops ! Just my 2 cents since we were briefly talking about cameras in cars.

he was doing 190 not 140, and he got caught because he was selling the videos on the internet. the shop is called JBA racing, they mainly do mustangs and other domestics. ill post more pics of my car in a bit.
