You know you got some power when....
It's not so much the block, but even with 400+whp (dyno dynamics) that on a DD tc with street tires, the car is scary fast. If you've never driven a tc with 400whp on the street and once you drive it and tell me that the power does not scare you, you're not being honest.
The problem here is breaking clutches, axles, wheel studs, tranny, etc. If you keep breaking those things, it's not much fun as a daily driver. And also it's not much fun if you can only run those power on race fuel.
We can get you the power you want, the question is can you afford the supporting mods and broken parts that come with all that power. Be careful what you wish for

Yea, but not paying 2k for headlights...
as for paying 2k its not that much when you think about it...lightwerkz is prob the best quality around, and i rather have them done once properly than have issues later on...all the parts cost over a thousand...and theres a lot that goes into a quad retro like alligning up both to have the same cutoff etc...its a lot of money but looking at what you get, the quality, and the amount of labor that goes into it, i feel its worth it

2k for headlights = price of a built Head. Sounds like a lot to me, and I don't work at McDonald's if you know what I mean...lol.

i think 4300k is too oem looking, i think 5k looks better whiter without hint of yellow. but anytime you go quad you spend over 1k just on parts then more work perfecting the cut off

With TSX projectors, you don't need bulbs to produce extra color. The cutoff produces the color, that's why whenever you see the cutoff on a wall, the very top is always blue/purple. It's the same results with S2000, FX35, TFX...as long as it has that coating on the cutoff, don't remember what it's called.

That's from the cutoff, not the bulbs. Higher temp bulbs will create color for the light under the cutoff, which results in less light output and no more visible color when viewing the headlights from above or at the cutoff.

i have an fx35 and s2k projectors on my quad all using 4300K, yeah blue light can easily be seen at certain angles.. i still think it would look better though on 5K.. hyperwhite looks better than sunlight white.. nothing compares to visibility of 4300K though.
