well i was driving home from work the person in front of me slam on his break and i step on mine because of traffic all of a sudden and stop but the person in a suv behind me was not paying attenetion on the phone was going to fast to stop and tried to avoid hitting and caught my left rear quarter. it hit me so hard that it pushed me into the car infront which was like 2 feet away from me. then another car behind the suv hit me lightly from behind so i was crushed between 3 car. so the cop had to break my passagener door and try and break me out because i could move and was in shock i couldnt even follow the light they were fashing in my eye or count how many fingure they were hold up. that hit also twist the chassis.

i had one on problem with it and that was after 5 months of use and daily driven abuse i used to race this car almost every night on street or track untune and everything held up nice. the wastegate pipe was cracking a little from the manifold but i rewelded it and it was fine but u have to make sure u use a flex pipe on the exhaust because i put it on my father car with out one it kept cracking around the turbo everytime we can from the track.
