That looks great. For some reason, I love the carbon seat pieces! And, the carbon trim around the grille is certainly hawt.

(But, i can get to pretty illegal speeds pretty quick with only 444 hp. I think I am happy for now.)

The piggy back ECU with intercooler costs $5K. Jumps torque/hp by 60. The only thing you need.

I like carbon fiber but too much of it can look overdone.

I would never use a piggy back ECU. Tune will eventually be available.

I agree my post was in reference to the entire ABT (overpriced) kit.

I am thinking to do the ABT kit with ECU, intercooler and intake and exhaust. I dont care about the looks as much as the performance so ill likely stay away from the other mods.

500+ HP and Torque must be nuts, its already loads of fun at 444
