Julius Sevilla
Elmhurst, Illinois
1995 VW Jetta III
Julius has put together a real driver's car with his 2.0-liter Jetta. He raided Neuspeed when it came time to add more power and performance to the German-bred sedan. Under the hood a Neuspeed P-chip and Neuspeed P-Flow intake system work with a Neuspeed cam and a Powertone muffler with DTM tips and custom piping to deliver additional thrust when the hammer is dropped. Handling performance has been addressed with Neuspeed sport springs and a Neuspeed strut tower bar. These mods work with 17-inch Konig Wildcard wheels and Yokohama rubber. The cabin has been dressed with Cerullo buckets, Niken pedals, a Momo shift knob and boot, an ABD short shifter and custom floormats. Tunes are pumped out by a Clarion based system using Soundstream, Boston Acoustics and Audio Wave products.
Julius would like to move to pressurization in the form of a blower or turbo kit in the future to better live up to his "WIKD VW" license plate and to better represent the CVO Chicago VW Club.
Lance
Sacramento, California
1998 Acura Integra GSR
Lance enlisted Ken at Pro Trans Auto Body to enhance the body lines of his GSR. The Integra flexes an Andy's Autosport aero kit, BMW Z3 gills and Supra taillights. The body was clean shaven of door handles, key ports and all emblems. Inside the stock buckets have been wrapped in two-tone leather. Under the hood the high-revving 1.8-liter has been pumped up with a DC Sports header, AEM intake, Type-R valve cover and a high-flow exhaust. Lance can adjust the ride height of his Integra via Ground Control coilovers. The car's handling envelope is further expanded by a front strut tower brace and Neuspeed rear lower tie bar. This Integra is sharp and with more photos would have made a nice extreme exposure.
Steven Asselin
Merrimack, New Hampshire
1991 Acura Integra LS
This Integra was saved from the junkyard and brought back to life. Steve also kept the crew at Neuspeed busy as his Acura runs a Neuspeed P-chip, a Neuspeed header, Neuspeed wires and Neuspeed strut tower braces. The 1.8-liter LS engine has been further kicked in the pants by a Tenzo-R intake and a HKS Hyper exhaust system. Rolling stock consists of 17-inch ADR rims and Toyo 40-series tires. A Wings West rear wing adds a sporty appeal to the Acura. Steve plans to add to that appeal with a full-tilt Wings West body kit. He wants more power too. As it sits, the car has posted a 14.6; he hopes to see low 12s or high 11s with the addition of a turbo kit and Zex nitrous set-up.
