What UR package do you have? Is this the high 9's 1/4mi on youtube? How much rwhp are you pushing? 1500-1600whp? Looks incredible man! Hats off to your UR TT Gallardo!

I don't know, I love my M5, it's fast, shifts hard and handles like a 4 door race car and I am #1 on the list for the new one.

Mine makes 1300 on the stock clutch. It's leaving next week for the Tilton clutch, taller gears, larger throttlebodies and Motec. It should be in the 1500+ whp. The blk car on Youtube ran 9.6s@160 was making about 1400 rwh with the taller gears. I didn't build it for 1/4 mile runs, just for a fun street car. My 6 spd Supra runs 7.90s @189, thats fast..

SW- Congrats on the purchase! Glad to hear you bought a stock one.

Marcus- Do you have any insight for SW with regards to the lowering links? I'm unsure of your opinion with regards to this mod...

Yes, I own Elite Motorsports (http://www.elitemotorsports.com/). Been doing high line cars for 23 years and been into cars all my life. My Dad is a car guy too and it started with Trans Ams and a Vette in High School. The only problem is, I can't stop collecting cars..

I own another buliding next to me that houses Boost Logic. They build all the fast Supras, including mine.

I will be out to dinner for a while and pm you later.

How in the hell do you decide what to keep and what to sell? I would keep everything and go broke not selling any!
