SEMA 2017 Review
Written by Joshua Howard Edited by Porsha Howard As always, SEMA did not disappoint. We’ve had the honor of being able to attend this event over the past few years and it seems to keep growing.

Last time we checked, twin turbos are not a necessity. Who would have guessed? Economic health is however best saved for another time. This year, the show was […]

Give us that ego boost and maybe one day we’ll give your car a real boost. This year, SEMA is set to take place during October (from 31st through November 3rd). It will once again be […]

Overkill at Bimmerfest 2017
