Tell them to go screw themselves. Take your kit apart and sell it. State ref it and then go HPF. VF is shady and reinforces my theory that they are barely staying above water. A good shop who ask to use the car should take care of any issues that arises while the car is in their possession.

unacceptable. especially if the car was under their care when they got pulled over. clearly they were not taking care of the car in the process.

It won't. The HPF turbo will give him points so he can win money on the dyno numbers the car puts out. Mo' Points!

there's more than a few things Eric can do to the car but it just depends if he wants to move up in show class or not. Chromed out suspension & undercarriage perhaps? replace all plastic pieces under the hood with high temperature acryllic to show off any upgraded hoses &/or wires
