My piston cracked in half and lodged itself sideways in the cylinder walls. My rods were a pile of scrap metal in the oil pan.

I'll recommend them as soon as my car is finished. I don't want to give props until its deserved. If you want to see my car, take a ride to ICS. Its right off of i95. Otherwise you can wait until its finished and then come see it.

The couple things that I can say about ICS is, they will take your car in the day you tell them you need work done. They get things done when they say they will unless they run into problems or needed parts. They can be pricey being that they work on mostly high end cars like porsche, audi, bmw.

I wanted to give up after the motor blew, believe me! But then after having plenty of time to re think it, I decided I will never have a really fast car if I kept giving up, so I changed my mind and went all out!

Yeah I dont need anything extreme done and that is understandable. I just basically need help with emissions and a header. Basically need to get on a lift and a O2 tool and put a non fouler fix on it and replace bushings on a motor mount so my car stops vibrating like a vibrator.

looking forward to seeing the numbers u put up man... itll give all of us something to shoot for..
 
i dunno. I really am interested in the single. I think the dual may be to expensive when it comes out. Anyways, I need to order one soon. Im looking for a used exhaust but if I cant find it used i may go with the cpe

I was going to order one a while back. I was never interested in their single, cause it was just too loud.

BUt their dual setup they're offereng, it sounds mean! Instead of just sounded like a loud ass 4-cylinder, it actually has a bit of low rumble growl to it.
 
who knows when it will be released. Then give it a day after and it will be backordered until 2009. I need to have an exhaust in like a week.
