thanks, im going to be 14yrs old in like 1 day...2?...3?....4?...5? 28?.....uhh....whenever may 9th is.
my parents still make me make a birthday list so i had a sh*t load of upgrades for my shockwave and then nubzorz said to just get a tornado bb....that got me to thinking, lol. just yesterday i helped my other friend break in his new tornado bb and i really liked how it ran but i didnt know how much it was, so i went home and made my b-day list with all the upgrades and then as soon as i got done i thought, ".........crap that sounds better than this." so now i made another list with just the BB on it.

i'll probably end up just upgrading the BB to a S30. im not ready for another really new thing just yet, maybe later. i already have a new black header that i found out that it wont fit on my shockwave.

yea my bb is great but yea when you break it in it probly wont shift anyway even if you did go full throttle mine didnt start shifting untill it was full broken in, all ive done to mine is put the chrome tuned exhaust on it, fuel filter and a motor saver air filter it was all cheap theres pics on my profile you dont even need any of this stuff mine didnt really run any faster with it but i would recomend getting a fuel filter for it.

whoa that seems like alot for an air filter...ah who cares im sure i have 16 bucks in my pockets...oh look ive got a twenty in here! lol
does it fit on the vertex .18 carb opening? does it air filter stick out so you have to bend it down to get the body on?

oh yeah i have a never used tuned polished aluminum pipe with me and a black pipe header will it make a difference on the performance of my engine if i break it in with the black header and the tuned pipe on it? should i break it in with all the stock things?
