Yep, mine is a daily driver. Though for that picture the P5 was professionally detailed just two weeks prior.

As for the guy with the Ford VC - he isn't from the US. It's likely he really does drive a Ford - a Ford Lynx, which is essentially a Protege with a different front end and Ford badging.

daily driven on 20psi.
 
^Need more light. Not sure about the distorted piece of CF in the front. It get's to damn hot in that area.

once i get the turbolife FMIC the piping will either be black chrome like the intake mani or same color as the VC. still undecided

Mark,
How long have you been running the Nology wires? I'm about to pull the trigger on the 2.0 to 1.8 conversion because I keep reading that the Nology wires has given some trouble under turbo application.
