New Parts...

[McQueens Dream]

just ordered new parts for my wife's 2012 MCA 6 banger, 6 speed. got the JLT cold air intake with SCT tuner and free Bama tunes for life, ordered pre-painted quarter window louvers and pre-painted taillight bezels. i also ordered her the Steeda Ultra Light lowering springs and Steeda heavy duty strut mounts. hope to have all this on by next weekend so i can take some pics to post up...

Nice! Any exhaust plans?

yeah but instead of paying over $350 for an axle back kit i have a friend who can do mandrel bends, so he is cutting off my stock mufflers and welding up some Magnaflow mufflers and tips. a whole lot cheaper than the kit...

Gotta love the hookup.

yup, they make things easy every now and then...

got the CAI and tuner installed last night, WOW!!!! that's really all i can say. the intake sounds awesome at WOT and the tune, well, it really woke up the sleepy V6. i only downloaded the 87 octane tune, i can only imagine what the 91 tune would have done. but the throttle response is instant now and there is no more drive by wire lag. if anyone is looking for an increase in power, look no further than a good CAI and tuner from Bama Tunes. seat of the pants feel, it will spin about a car length and a half in second laying black marks and then spin third about 3 feet. and i wasn't really straining the car. next up, 3.73 gears...
