Looky looky, Art made a profile.  Good stuff!

Bring your car to me and I will install the supercharger for you Art.  Just as long as you let me drive it around after the tune.

Great to have you back

[MyNameIsThien]

If you want me to install it, I can. It isn't really that hard to install. I removed my old CT S/C in like 10 minutes.

Also, welcome back you really tall Asian guy.

welcome and nice pics

OK... so that was short lived. I'm selling the car!

This thing has been babied and has 2 problems: the seat belt is squeeky and could use some graphite or lube, some bubbles in the rear 3M tint.

Otherwise perfect. I'll throw in a brand new rear lip spoiler and a custom emblem wing CF replacement.

150K miles (mostly highway as I used to drive San Francisco to Santa Barbara)

I'm letting her go for $7,000.  Let me know if you wanna know my full list of what it comes with.

I'm lame and haven't made enough posts to create a new one there.

Serious? I think I can do that.

[timot_one]

I'm half serious.  I'd definitely consider picking it up though.

I'm all the way serious about that. When are you coming over? Let's get some NorCal CM's together with your new ride.

I've got to take a look at some stuff first before I can consider another car. I'm in the middle of another motor build right now. That's $7k that could be going into the Accord I already have.
