I just got off the phone with IPS. Ordered a few parts before I schedule my tune with them this spring. KEEP THE PICTURES COMING! I love to see the build progress!

Do you know if IPS has made any revisions to their skid plate? I dropped to 19" rims and car scrapes REALLY bad; it sits about 3/4" above the ground. My shop recommended flush mount bolts to hold it in......the skidplate just sits too damn low! Is IPS planning anything in the future?

First time I ever heard there are issues witha FAST intake, I've seen a lot of builds with them, and never heard any issues.

From what ive heard it doesnt do much for twin turbo builds, especially for the price. I decided to go with a custom intake like DE too.

I haven't heard of any problems with the skidplate. Next time I'm at IPS, I'll ask about it.

My car is in a bit of a holding pattern right now. We have to wait 2 weeks for it to go to the cage shop.

Ummm.... you might want to pull out a calculator, add up all those upgrades, and throw in the labour. You amy end up asking yourself why you don't have 2 cars in the driveway.
