Teaser: net loss of 120whp ;)

jpsimon · 12-13-2008, 10:51 PM

m-force m3 sideskirts: +30whp
Thule Rack, flat-top 6: -150whp

(my car is dirty, thus the color difference)... real photoshoot to come soon (rear needs a little fitment help, will do soon):

McLuVan · 12-13-2008, 10:53 PM

nice
isn't it net gain of 120whp?

Aurora Bearialis · 12-13-2008, 10:57 PM

what do you mean +150WHP because of skirts?

I swapped the numbers by accident, fixed it

Saigon · 12-13-2008, 11:04 PM

hows the roof rack? does it feel stable?

Aurora Bearialis · 12-13-2008, 11:06 PM

But 150WHP HOLY ISH!!!!!

jpsimon · 12-13-2008, 11:07 PM

I love the rack. It's very stable, but it whistles at highway speeds. I'm gonna get the fairing soon to reduce that noise (and give myself a place to sticker up)

Keep the M3 skirt. It def. will goes very well with the M-tech kit.

It's my filthy car with brand spanking new perfectly clean sideskirts. When you wipe off the grime they match perfectly
