Racing season over, modding season begins!

Ordered my Killer chiller today and got my bald drag radials dismounted so I can ship my track wheels off to be widened from 8 to 9.5". Anyone else planning mods over winter?

I also ordered the rest of the parts for my sound system. It will consist of a Pioneer DEH 4600 NEX H/U, a Crescendo C1100 amp driving a FI IB312 sub and Morrrel Virtius 6.5" 3 way components with a back up camera added. I scaled back the plan from my original amp choice, a ZED Leviathon, with two sets of Morrel components. If I can just keep the package shelf from rattling out of the car it ought to sound good. The only real challenge will be building the mount for the sub, but I talked to a buddy about it and he says he can CNC one out of ABS so it will be durable and exactly the shape I want..

I'd be glad to do install threads if there is interest out there, but it will not be until January before I start. I just want the parts here ready to go before I get time to do it all.

Love too. Wish I had the money to buy the stuff V12 Godspeed has for sale, but this year I'm trying to keep costs down. Sick of the stereo working great sometimes and other times not at all. I already had most of the sound system parts so the cost for the rest of that was minimal.

If no one buys the parts he has for sale before next year......

Killer Chiller arrived today. Going to be tough to let it sit on a shelf for the next 2 months, but with outside temps getting freezing now I'm really not running high IAT's now either.

PM me... I have no rush in selling. I am stuck in a 2 year program or else these parts would have been tested loooonnnnggg ago.

Good choice on the sound system.
