as a long term tester? They had nothing but problems with the car. Damn the parts were cheap. Full exhuast, cam shafts, bigger housing for the turbo and software for less than 3 grand!!!! The car ran like **** but damn you would think they would figure it out and make it reliable.

Default They just had some bad luck with their install and gave up too soon.

They should have just left it at the shop and let them iron things out. It's not like the C/D staff ever drove the car anyway.

That's what happens when you give a performance car to a journalist.
