Give the resonated X about 200 miles or so to break in and get coated with carbon before judging the sound fully. Mine definitely changed a bit between initial install and about 40-50 miles, and then got a little crisper and louder after that. Looking forward to hearing a sound clip!
Will do :thumbsup: I will do my best to get a cold start up and some revs up of my current setup before I swap and do the same after the install to get a good before and after.

Mmm carbon!!

Especially love the CF radiator cover panel. Didn't know they did one with a prop shaft delete...another wish list item added :D
I wanted the version without the hood prop and am happy Trufiber had one. I have had very good luck with Trufiber and am 0 for 2 from Anderson as far as arriving damaged :shrug:

Your engine looks soooooo good buddy. Love the whipple cam covers.
Thanks Shawn :thumbsup:

I love this car. That engine bay makes my pants tight.
:eyebulge:

I am glad we were able to get you squared away. You are very welcome sir, this is Awesome!!!

Thank you for choosing CJ Pony Parts!
:first:

Going to start the Airlift install shortly after getting home from a trip to CA to meet up with some forum friends. Figured I'd start collecting the final pieces to dial in the suspension just so in the mean time.

Steeda Adj Camber Arms



New nut inserts for my Steeda shock mounts to convert from KW to Airlift



Got a few tricks up my sleeves for later ;)

I must say this "build thread" is very informative & enjoyable, but on a Fireman's salary? Surely not. You have a nice garage & lifts, plural. And your wife puts up with your build?
I've built a Cyclone 2014 about 1/2 as far as your S550 , now I am struggling to build my Coyote Red. Hat's off to you, thanks for the views, Mercy.

I'm jealous you got a days head start and will be going to the track on Sunday but I'm still very excited to meet you fellas. Who would of thought it would take a trip to CA to have a guy from MA meet a guy from ME?

Shit, there on to me :ninja:

A fireman who works 80-90 weeks, thats how lol

Yes I have the best wife in the world. I only wish it didn't take me 2 try to get it right. Think how far I'd be with all that divorce and child support money haha. I got two great kids out #1, 2 more outta #2 and I'm a very happy man.

Thanks for the kudos my friend, hang in there and get back to work so you can build your S550 :headbang:

Still in California right now. I flew out to meet some other forum members and to turn wrenches on their cars and visit Whipple. Having a blast with these guys but have to go home Thursday. Work all weekend and hope to get going on everything come Monday. I will be sure to post my experience :thumbsup:

Would be great to see you come east:thumbsup: We had a great time. Highlights were Thunder hill, with Dave crushing the coarse (he taught what our cars can do) Whipple tour buying parts there and of course sound tube mod on Dustin's car in the Whipple shop, and ride in Dustin's car after:hail: screaming like a deamon, had a big smile. But really best of all was meeting these guys for the first time working on there cars hanging out and cutting up. Thanks Dave, Jay man, and Jamie for for good times. Can't wait for west coast to comes east:headbang:
