I.M.S Role Call.

Hey guys,Just curious as to how many people have done the IMS upgrade to the car. I know if you talk to most people on here it's not as much of a worry then when you talk to a shop and they tell you "do not drive the car till to get this fixed" I do plan on doing the upgrade sooner then later. Found a shop in Jersey that will do it for around $1700. So below feel free to list your car info if you have or have not done the upgrade. Thanks

Please List:
Year:
Mileage:
I.M.S. Upgrade Done-Yes/NO:
