Default Another DA9 has joined the "darkside".........

Well i've had the car boosting for a week and a half with no problems "yet". I only had a small scare the first couple of days cause i kept hearing a rattling. Didn't know if it was detonation, turned out to be 2 bad motor mounts. I haven't dynoed or ran the car yet so i have no numbers.

Take in mind this car went from full black widow kit, huge aluminum wing, 17" white/polished wheels etc.......I opted to go for the "function over fashion" method that so many of us are going for. Enjoy and coments are more than welcome.....


Looks innocent



Front....modified Drag intercooler



engine shots....



Garrett AiResearch T3

Looks great. Nice job

BTW as far as I'm concerned that thing looks anything but innocent... definately not a sleeper to me.

Thanks for the positive comments.

I know this is probable off topic, but here's the way it looked like before





....sorry moderators if this is going off topic. I'll also post this in the "Appearance Forum", just trying to get a point across.
