Hey there!
I'm Chris.
I have been around the tri-state area for 23 years now(central PA mostly, but also Buffalo and Phila._), I was a member of Turboforum.net WAYYY back in the day and have been far more active in the tri-state/MAIC area of NASIOC and the SCCA for the past couple years.

265/35/18 BFG R1 slicks on my stock BBS'

theGURU · 03-24-2010, 03:15 PM

and I forgot to mention, I blew up the motor in my pops' s2000 a few years back and so I got a new motor and turbo'd it for him(he always said he thought it was a little slow from the factory)
I paid for everything on the car, so when he is tired of it/cant get in and out of it anymore, it will be mine =)
before I blew it up

and after i "blew" it =):

^^^the "H" flew off on the first highway pull, thought it was funny cause my passenger said it was having an identity crisis, a fast honda, no wai!!!!
and a vid. for proof of the boooooooooost=)
