It has been. But will see how she handles this race season. 80 days away. So much to do in 80 days. Cage, turbo set up, tune, dyno, get the numbers dialed in at the track, and get seat time haha. More updates soon.

It's a avid bar. I like it except for the customer service. It took like 4 months to recieve it. And they sent the wrong hardware. And they also sent me the wrong motor mounts lol. Sent me cable at first but I like it. Fit ment was perfect.
