    I've had it up to 19mpgs in the summer time. But I get at least 16 usually.

    Not too bad considering the armor you have, and towing, plus the V6 isn't exactly a hybrid as it is

    Its a Saturn, and gm performance division it to him for building,/ helping them dominate the koni challenge and grand am cup with the cobalt ss race cars.

    And its badass. Absolutely a monster on the track. He regularly makes Porsches, m3's, etc look like piece of shit minivans on the track, let alone sti's & evos.

    He drives it cause he likes it, he helped gm develop the cobalt ss/ Saturn ion redline. Its a sleeper, and everything on it is functional. Hood vents work, spoiler works, brake ducting works, etc...

    Plus since its a Saturn the body panels are already plastic, so its nice and light before most of them were replaced with CF.

    He also has a few vettes, a cts-v, some Mercedes AMG car, and a gm 3500 to tow his car trailer. Plus his shop has a gt1 vette that his son drives.

    More than he'd care to count I'm sure. He's had it in wind tunnels perfecting the aero and developing the hood for max cooling and under hood pressure relief.

    I was running his 2- piece rotors just in the front of my car. They were $750 for the two rotors...

    People should take note of that. That's what Powerslot is trying to rip off.

    Haha. The power slots are fine for the street, but crap for the track.


    These are actually 2 pieces, the rotor and a hat. It allows the rotor to expand/ contract separately from the hat. Pretty badass. Plus they are really heavy , so they disperse heat really well.

    I had the Quad 4 in my 97 Olds Achieva. I made sure it got plenty of driving time at high revs!

    Satoshi'd grill. blacked out badges. aftermarket sound system. De-chromed and color matched. OME 885s + Dakars with 3rd leaf removed. LR UCAs. Scs stealth 6 with 285 duratracs. BAMF sliders
    Nice! I think it would benifit them big time to do a group buy, i dont think i have seen a group buy yet for a whole suspension set up, even a small discount like 5 or 10 percent will peobably get alot of people to buy. It would be good for them to get their name out on this forum, look at the treklights group buy, he has the same deal going on in like 6 different forums and none of them have close to the amount of buyers we have.
