picked up the copy, nice section on both the cars, i would so want the Tein one with the coil over adjustment at the press of a button like hydraulics on a 64' lowrider impala lol...the Tien was my fave maybe because i was a HUGE fan of the wide body design

only thing i was REALLY disappointed in in the greddy box was the non exsistant dyno sheet results...

Also in Import tuner the cartoon comic Max boost shows him driving a modified Xb
seen in Maxboost issue 77...the website www.maxboost.com only shows up to issue 75.

so yea pick up copies!!

You can own the TEIN xB, its up for sale.

I've ridden in it, worked on it, and pretty much gotten to look over evey inch of it.

lol thanks for the heads up....mmmm but i just am far too attached to my box to get another...i'd rather build up my box then buy one already tuned...its cheating in a sense...not my style to do that but damn i would love to do the things it has done to mine eventually. i'd certainly in the mean time opt for drool waxing that car if i was in its presence...for free!

I know Nilo's xB was going to be in Super Street but I don't remember ever seeing it, except for in an ad for something. That was like a year ago though.

Aaaah yeah. That issue came out while I was on my honeymoon last year and I never really got a chance to check it out. That explains it.

im right there with you bro. i was really dissapointed that they could not provide dyno results on the turbo. that would have made it so much more interesting.

yea not saying greddy is Bsing what they have done to the box but its just words when you dont see the results on paper its like a guy walking up to you and saying he has a work done under the hood but wont let you see under the hood ....those people make you wonder but i'm sure with greddy thats not the case lol! i'm just wondering b/c maybe they thought it was a box no one would care tuning wise ( we do darn you!) or the fact that maybe they didnt get very desirable results from what they did to the box they didnt want to post the results ....i'm just guessing so i'm sure they just hadnt dyno'd it in time...but man if i knew i was gonna be in a mag i would have Dyno'd and god knows what else i would have done to look spiffy as well lol!
