VO with Akra & KW pics

dsharpie · 12-25-2011, 05:12 PM

Here are some pics of my VO that I recently had serviced at Alekshop:

Akrapovic full evolution exhaust system with downpipes and wireless kit and titanium tips (first pic shows the stock exhaust)
KW V3-1M coilover kit
FMIC with new charge pipe (not pictured)

These were my Christmas present to myself. And if you live in Nor Cal and/or want an Akra install done meticulously, Aleks is the man - you can also see his white 1M in a few of these pics. Thanks to Mark for taking the great pictures and allowing me to share them. Enjoy!

Congratulations and Merry Christmas. I picked up my BSM 1M a couple of weekends ago in So. Cal. and like what you have done with yours. I live in San Mateo and work in Palo Alto, so it would be great to catch up in person sometime.

Sounds good. I have actually yet to see a BSM 1M in person. Shoot me a PM with your contact info if you want to meet up sometime. I often take 280 up to San Mateo and then cut down Skyline to Page Mill. It's a great route - in fact I did that yesterday for the first time since installing the new exhaust and suspension.

PM me your email address and I'll send it to you. I don't want to bog down the thread with the bigger file size images.

Thanks for your note Aleks, and I was just talking to Scott about maybe visiting you tomorrow. Brian

Looks great! Pictures are awesome! I'd be interested in a Bay Area meet or maybe another Dyno day if Aleks wants to host it at his shop or something!

bklounge · 12-25-2011, 08:24 PM

The ti tips look soooo much cleaner than the cf. Congrats! So glad I went with this identical setup. Mine ships tues or weds

thanks. i'm not sure when the next meet will be scheduled; I'll have to bug Aleks about it. Also, i think Aleks is looking into some Dyno options, so stay tuned on that front.

We can host a meet at the shop ... It would be a good way to start 2012

Right after we can head over to the dyno place which is very close to us ...

You guys can definitely stop by tomorrow ...

Are you by any chance a part of CFRA ?

Aleks.
