Glad to hear everything is looking good! You are pioneering a bright future in the world of Lightnings. There may be more ups and downs, please don't let them discourage you! I know its hard, and I know its expensive (I had a good buddy do a custom twin turbo set up on an LS1 camero, and after a couple years of burning up turbo's and not getting a proper tune, he gave up in favor of NOS) but you are doing great things for everyone in the community!

Keep up the good work, and best of luck to you brother!

Really glad to hear that your milk shake was only temporary. You have really hung in there with this truck. I know that L-fest is important to you glad to see you will be able to attend. Make sure you get plenty of pics and video.

Be sure to contact us if you need anything.

Thanks again Scott! You guys have the best customer service of anyone I have had the pleasure to do business with during this build. I'll be sure and email you some good pics you can put on your web site if you want to.

Sorry for the recent lack of updates guys. With the truck getting finished so close to LFest, I didn't have time to get pics, videos, etc. with all the finish work I had to do just to make the trip. The truck did successfully complete the 900+ mile round trip in one piece though. Now that I'm back (and had a damn good time I might add...) I'll work on getting a vid or 2 and more pics. Here are a couple that someone took at LFest this past weekend that I thought were pretty good.

Thanks man. No they aren't going to tune it for me, but they are about to do a complete single turbo kit for the 2V trucks.
