Good morning everyone I just wanted to introduce myself I am Dan Akinduro but everyone calls me AK. I am a disabled vet who served in combat and now I am just working towards retirement. I have a car obsession and have managed to learn how to build a car from scratch minus welding. I'm a civil engineer with a specialty in transportation and a master's and project engineering and construction management so I tend to stay busy working a lot. I have been building cars for about 15 to 20 years and been racing just as long. I was born in Nigeria my grandfather had 30 wives 64 children my dad was the first born out of the 64 children and he brought us to America in 1989. That was how it all began. I'm looking forward to getting to know this form and the people in it thank you for taking the time to read this have a great day!

Welcome aboard, lots of great info here (best to use google to search to be fair).

Yes there is alot of stuff on this car not aware off changed the RMM to Mountune, Whoosh silicone symposer delete, Turbosmart 7psi wastegate actuator for stock turbo, Mountune Cold Air Intake, Cobb Accessport, and other mods. So when I bought this car in May it had a bunch of mods and things done that I was not aware of so I have been taking it all apart and putting it back together with better parts to make sure that I am crossing my T's dotting my I's. It had the five lug spacers already on the vehicle previously with locking lug nuts which was not provided for me so I have been working my way to get those off. About the car in Stafford Virginia from a dealer they said the car was in great shape as I used car I expected some issues but the issues I'm dealing with are way beyond what the dealership stated. Honestly clean title but a lemon i must say, luckily for me I'm a big car guy so it's not as bad as it would have been back in the day
