120 isn't bad at all, might have to be my next purchase. think it would be the better bet over getting the updated oem warrantied?

Nice modification, should help force more air toward the heat exchanger.
Have you considered going with a larger HE? Looks like that bumper will allow you the room.

Great progress! Couple of questions...

-What are you doing in the rear for the diffuser area?

-Any plans on installing additional HE or upgrading to the 65 HE while the front is taken apart?

MishaDesigns includes Custom Carbon Fiber Diffuser that is SICK pix soon... Heatexchanger seems adequate since I have the rear IC reservoir tank. After Widebody's finished, Speedriven's latest Priemier pkg will be installed @ that point HE will most likely be upgraded

Ridonkulous!

Are you doing anything to enlarge the rear rotors, or keeping them stock?

excellent point Clayton...I think some nice big brembo rotor and caliper upgrades front and rear will really fill out the wheels and the body well, maybe some custom painted calipers would add some extra pop!
