Ricer240sx · 06-29-2004, 09:04 PM

my buddie just got a test pipe from them, so, as far as i know there still good

Yeah I think HT's still up and running. It could be Secret Services you've heard about and down the grapevine SS could have gone to HT. That's my guess.

That sucks. I've been slowly gathering parts and was planning on taking my car down there to get it tuned. At least Scott is still doing the rom tuning (which is what I wanted to do). Hopefully I can still get this stuff together while he's still doing it!

***S14DB*** · 06-29-2004, 10:14 PM

your thinking of unstable-hybrids. They went out with people banging at there door and $50k in the hole.

Ricer240sx · 06-30-2004, 02:10 AM
