I'm thinking of getting one that is attached to the GPS module, so that the rig can be located instantly. Although I'm not really so worried about it being stolen but more about it being vandalized. Drunk Finnish people can be pretty jealous at times...

Hard to say compariston to stock brakes because I have got so little driving with the stock ones and when I did I was way to excited to notice any braking (if I did any http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif ). Anyways, I remember somebody saying that H2 stops lika a train and I know Brembos should not really make H2 stop any faster. But what I can say after the first day on them, mine stops like any passanger vehicle I've ever had. So VERY hape with them!

To me, worth the money.

Not sure about the bi-xenons, because the importer has to install new headlights due EU-regulations. I think they are Hella since the control unit is hella. But I can check if you want...

Same thing with the tail lights. They must be changed to meet EU-regulations. These are LED lights and custom built for the importer here in Finland by Hella. If you are interested I can ask them how much are go for.

Thanks!

Thanks guys!!!

Taken out. Totally!

I was going replace it back inside, but actually never done it. I put the tow hooks back as they were.

Hey good job Thoumas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was allot of work to get to where You are but, it sure appears that it should be well worth the long road. Rig looks nice!!!

Oh, also I will back you on your dyno numbers as we are set up simularly and my numbers at the wheels are 550hp and also about the same in torque. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO PUSHING BOOST ON UP TO 16lbs. with water/methanol injection and co2 spray on the aftercooler. I hope to get to 750hp at the wheels without changing heads but, most likely will need to. When I do it will get roller rockers and lifters etc. Maybe I can do some porting and pollishing on the factory heads adding the roller rockers etc.

You have done a great job to be proud of.

Thank you! You guys helped me a lot! I have to say that when we started this project I thought I'd have a totally risky project in my hands. But I did find a good mechanic and everything has worked better than perfect since. It is always fun to turn heads and surprise some Some Urban so-called-Vehicles (SUV) :twak: like BWM's MB's etc

Thanks again and hope you're doing well!!!
