I'd love to make one for my car too but i'm little worried about the boys in blue somehow finding it on one of there usual anti hooning campaigns and turning it against me..They take all the fun out of life. lol

Why? there's nobody that can prove that YOU were driving the car. Also, was that even your car? ;)
Great vid btw. Love to see what it does @ full boost

What he said. Can't prove you were driving, its just a video of your car in an undisclosed place, which for all they know could be in "mexico" :icon_bigg



BTW, looking forward to the finished product paradox. Keep us updated with lots of pics/vids as always!

I've done a new video of a run through the black spur (narrow windy road with a stupid speed limit but a awesome drive) without going over the limit :p

it was a 40deg C day but given I've got a front mount and running low boost ambient temperature doesn't seem to make a big difference after all its in the middle of summer here :)

You should make a vid running thru the gears on a long straight road

Because he would have been exceeding 110 kph which is the maximum speed limit in Australia except for maybe a few spots. Not much point showing a vid that only lets you reach the top of second.:naughty:, need to find a track or a private road.

So has anyone gotten one of these checked out yet? Paradox looks like the only one with real good feedback as to the operation.

I am debating between this, the SupraSport Boss Jr. (57 trim-not sure if it is worth the extra coin) and the Driftmotion upgraded 57 trim...

Hum, what to do... Just got the tax refund and would really like to replace my CT-26 with blown seals...

I'd get a master power and a t4 manifold before I spent that much money on a lipp turbo...but that's me:-/

Lots of people have been starting threads about suprasport dropping the ball lately, so I don't think I'd go with one of theirs either.
