I think im gonna sell my stock trunk. Is anyone interested abd for those who dont know I have a 05 vr ss/sc highrise

 

Ah thanks Mike, you reminded me that I still have my wingless trunk that I can sell

 

Your welcome

 

So who one here would wanna come help me out when I do my s/c 2.2 build in the spring? Im in the hazleton area (luzerne county) and I have sme people helpin me out, but it'd be nice to have someone come who actually did it.

 

Only person I know of is cody (klutch814) hat did it

 

Wheres helocated?

 

He's on here usually at night. Just frequent back here and let him know. He's finishing his 2.2 turbo build.

 

Cruzzer, if you wouldn't mind, I'd love to come by during the build as I'm going to be supercharging my 2.2 in the summer, most likely.

It'd be awesome to get an idea before hand.

And Cody is located in Phillipsburg? I know it's near State College areaish

Also sjc, you can give me the wingless trunk as a christmas gift

 

Toby, you're so cheap! Lol.

 

Toastie that'd be fine with me haha. I'm about 1.5-2 hours from Altoona. Nd ill be moving to state college in August.

 

You're about an hour from me, not a bad drive

 

yea hazelton is an ok place. my stepmom's mother lives in shenandoah or w/e it is up there by ringtown. thats a place where 4-wheelers rule the land.

and at least for toby when he supercharges it he can be sure it will be more reliable than a turbo. turbo's are more finicky anyway from what i understand.

 

I think it's just a lot less crap to mess with supercharging it, like it's pretty much a direct bolt on

 

Lol Toby I need cash for hookers

 

i did a turbo build and rebuilt the engine. im from philipsburg. i can help but itd have to be early spring. i leave in april for the navy.
