-Someone who modifies a car distastefully

2. How do you feel about them?

3. Why are you interested in “hooking up” your car?

-Hobby, and the feeling you get knowing you control something that powerful

4. How were you exposed to the car scene?

-High school friends

5. What is the goal for your car?

-The goal always changes, so none really

6. What are the things you’ve done to your car so far?

Ported 16g w/34mm wastegate, Custom FMIC setup, IC Piping, HKS SSQV BOV, Greddy TT, HRC 625cc Injectors, DSMlink V2, Apexi N1 80mm Exhaust, 2.5" Downpipe, 2.5" Testpipe, Ported O2 housing, Magnacor Wires, NGK Plugs, GAB Shocks, Nitto 555 tires, Racing Hart C2 Evo 18x7.5" wheels, ACT 2600, Symborski Shift kit, Walbro 255lph Pump, Greddy Profec B, Apexi 60mm Boost Gauge, Apexi 60mm EL EGT Gauge, Pioneer DEH-P6400 Reciever, Infinity Kappa 3-way 6x9's, Infinity Reference 6.5" Seperates, Alpine MRV-F340 Amp, RM front lip, 3" GM MAF, DSM Translator, Eibach Prokits, and a few other things but Ill spare ya


7. How much money have you spent?

-After old parts were sold off, including body and audio, my cost probably 3000-3500

8. Do you ever feel satisfied? If not, why?

-Everyday. The more I do the more satisfied I feel. I personally have come to a point where I enjoy every single aspect about the car, as I've never focused attention on any one particular angle, but instead did everything IE: suspension, looks, audio, performance, and I'm extremely satisfied, however the bar is always raised every year and theres always new things to do, which only leave me more satisfied.

9. What’s the most rewarding attribute?

-Being able to walk up to someone I have never once met and have them instantly respect you, and you have the same back to them.

10. What are the problems you run into hooking up your car?

-Mechanically none, financially eh I spend some but its nothing that doesnt allow me to do anything else I want, you just have to work for what you want, and if you want more than just a car to show for your life then work that much harder

11. What makes your car unique?

-I'm a DSMer who doesnt have tunnelvision

12. On a scale of 1 – 10, (1 = know nothing about cars, 10 = Guru) how would you rate yourself?

8.5, the more I learn the more I find I still need to learn.
