I wish I was back in San Diego but the money is out here! out here the car scene is lame. at least here in OH. I have to drive to PA or New York for the car shows. at least in San Diego when I use to enter my car shows there's all year round car shows from Hot Import Nights, Hot Import Daze, Convention Center in LA and a bunch of others. here the only thing closest relating to cars is Cars and Coffee which kinda gets old after the first few meetups

Installed new plugs (ngk) with .020 gap, so that I can now install my Mission Performance Stage 1 engine and trans tune...

no idea...i believe these tunes all do pretty much the same thing, it all depends on how safely they are modifying timing/boost pressure and other parameters....

give alex at mission tuning a call, he's good dude...answered all my questions..before i bought the tune...

The money is here... It just all goes to SacraDEMENTo! Just got our water bill. Haven't watered the lawn in 2 months and do other, water saving things and the bill is still $108! Can't wait for the gas/electric bill. I foresee around $300. Good thing I'm retired as gas is about $3.16 at Costco; around $3.70 elsewhere.

Well i didnt necessarily do anything today but a few things over the Christmas break. I tried to upload on the app but kept getting errors and gave up smh lol. Anyway here are some of the things that I have done:

- 20 inch Niche Methos M195 Wheels (20 x 9 square)
- BFGoodrich Tires 255x35x20
- Black Grille
- Rear Spoiler
- BMW shadow door lights

Next I want to paint the brake calipers maybe blue, yellow, or orange...any suggestions? lol. Then probably an exhaust.

Coming out lookin' badass! Blackout those front orange reflectors. As far as the caliper color because your car is black I think any color would look good! I did mine gold and it blended very well with my Matte Antique Bronze wheels
