Default Looking for a second gen for G Link install

Prodigy Customs Looking for a Second Gen Car for a G Link Install.

FREE Labor and 20% discount on the kit!

Hey guys, with the new G Link around the corner, I am looking for a running / driving second gen car to do a G Link swap in. I want to be able to do A / B drive it in on Monday on leafs, drive it out on Weds on the 4 link for some good seat of the pants testing. IF the owner is willing to do back to back performance timed testing would be a bonus. But my experience in the past with these systems in first gens, the ride and performance is so much better just driving it will make it clear it is much improved.

We are also doing this for a second reason. We sell what we install. So we need to go through the installation process ourselves as well as feel the difference.

The swap will cost about $2000 total as we will give this kit at 20% off and provide all the installation free. If the car is within 200 miles we will pick it up and deliver it FREE!

So what qualifies your car?

Your car should :

Be running and driver (pretty doesn't matter)

Front suspension mods would be nice but not required

No project cars!

Within 200 miles of Orlando, Fl. If farther then 200 miles, you handle shipping

Too bad I'm not a bit closer! I have a perfect car for this experiment (well, perfect in that it's drivable but with no actual mods yet)... And the sad thing is, the car just came to me from Port St. Lucie 2 months ago!

I would double the cost of the G-Link in shipping the car back and forth to you unfortunately...

So we have a winner.

Congratulations Pete, You are the winner


I got inundated with people campaigning to use their cars, some were willing to ship the car and spend more shipping then the value of the freebie just to have us work on their car. Very flattering but the winner turns out to be right in my back yard.

I found the PERFECT car and am very excited. Looks like a gorgeous car, looks fast and Pete can drive the hell out of it. this makes a perfect back to back testing car.
