Why would you go custom when there are so many affordable options out there that put down nice numbers?
Kleeman...
PLM...
Hyveon....

Just curious, not hating.

Great choice Karl! Do you already have a tuner in mind?

I put off modding because I just picked up a JD Machine Tech AR15 & a Bushmaster ACR. Both will fire .223 & .556 but with a simple mod the ACR will fire AK47 rounds!
