Airmatic gone to make room for coilovers.


I sold my last set of DPE wheels and decided to go down to 19" DPE wheels. I am having them refinished and they are almost done.



I also decided to do a few other things also.

Puppy looks sad about the airmatic pile on the floor, ha ha.

I, for one, want to say thank you for taking on this project...so I don't have to. I had one of the first twin turbo new body GTOs in the US and while its fun forging new ground, it was a huge pita and very expensive.

Keep at it!

Paul, glad to see you are still working on the build. I was hoping you would chime in the other thread and speak on your behalf, but I understand with little sissy girl douches like Emoving yapping away spewing bs, maybe you didn't feel too compelled.. still wish we knew the full story not just the crap posted.

Anyways..

Good luck with this build, I'm excited to see it come through and while I cant speak for everyone, **I** am happy AF to see you still posting/updating the build thread.

Ahhhhh look, it's the tough guy keyboard bigmouth that used to have the screen name Prada after his grandmothers purse. The fact you had to ask the question to him shows your intellectual level of thought process.

Please take your bullsh** elsewhere. Don't ruin this mans build thread now with your old, recycled tired *** Prada jokes-- which were lame to begin with. I don't even understand why you're still here.. don't even own a 211.

And in case you are slow that's not an open invite for another dim-witted retort. Rather, a nudge out the door of mbworld.

I mentioned you because no one rides nuts harder then you bro, just reread that "beware" thread. Talking **** on Paul like your the ultimate judge, oh poor is you and your friends shop who couldn't finish the build No one gives af. Stop polluting his build thread with your crap. Clearly, he's doing what your friends totally awesome shop couldnt.

Any reason you're going with a log vs a equal length mani? What kind of power are you expecting?

Who cares about the nay sayers let them talk all they want, those are the guys that never do anything to their cars anyways and wait for people to test products out for them. I think your build is coming along well and it will be awesome at the end.

Good Luck and I'll be watching this thread.

A log style header tends to work really well on a turbo set up. I have a horsepower number I am shooting for but not looking to give that info out yet

Please start your own build thread with your new customer and get out of mine!

The car is being worked on by me. So hopefully no drama lol.

Good for you. All I've seen is talk from you and your cheerleader over here. So excuse me if I really don't give 2 ****s about this supposed TT kit you have under wraps. I haven't seen any dynos, no pics, nothing.. but you have it finished so make all the excuses you want, I don't care what happened between you and Paul, he's posting pics and sharing with the community and your not.

I think its safe to say by the looks of that hillbilly tennis ball holder manifold that they have no real fab skills. That looks like something off a 1987 turbo GSX-R.
