BDS Suspension designs, manufactures and distributes suspension systems for most makes and models of trucks and SUV's. BDS Suspension's Mike Maloney is an automotive enthusiast with a strong hunger for adventure. Maloney has been modifying vehicles for over 25 years and has thousands of lifts under his belt.
The BDS Suspension 1997 Jeep TJ
For the first year, Maloney and BDS Suspension attended the 2009 SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) Show in Las Vegas, Nevada. K&N met up with Maloney at his booth where his 1997 Jeep TJ was on display. Maloney's TJ handled the tough, off-road terrain of Petersons 2009 Ultimate Adventure which was also sponsored by K&N.
Maloney's Jeep is equipped with a K&N filter. "We've used K&N products for years," Maloney mentioned, "not only on our company vehicles but our personal rigs as well. We like the additional protection K&N offers and the great performance we can count on. The TJ has been running a K&N Filtercharger air filter as well as a pre-filter, making over a dozen, hard core, off road events in the last year."
Maloney and BDS Suspension have numerous customized rigs that are driven by their staff on a daily basis visiting retail 4x4 and truck accessory shops. This is probably the first of many SEMA shows the Coldwater, Michigan business will be attending given the interest SEMA attendees had in their Jeep and suspension systems.
2010 Mustang RTR is equipped with an RTR rear diffuser, front splitter, aluminum rear spoiler, RTR side and rear emblems, as well as a distinctive RTR vinyl scheme
K&N drifter Vaughn Gittin Jr. presented a new generation of the Ford Mustang to the world at the SEMA Show this year – the Mustang RTR. Along with designer Caleb Clark and the help of Classic Design Concepts, Vaughn successfully brought his vision to life in the form of a modern, aggressively-styled Mustang that contains a perfect mixture of performance upgrades. The RTR was on display at the K&N Filters booth all week and received a huge response from media and car-enthusiasts alike.

The RTR's performance upgrades include a Ford Racing calibration with a K&N high-flow air filter. "I chose to go with the K&N high-flow air filter because it has the best filtration and the most airflow; and offers nine horsepower when matched with a Ford Racing tune," says Vaughn.
Other performance upgrades include Falken FK452 performance tires, Ford Racing damper kit with 1.5 inch lowering springs, Baer drilled and slotted rotors, and extremely throaty mufflers.
The Mustang RTR includes aggressive OEM-quality exterior elements such as an RTR rear diffuser, front splitter, aluminum rear spoiler, RTR side and rear emblems, as well as a distinctive RTR vinyl scheme. The vehicle also features a tasteful chin spoiler and sleek side splitters. The aggressive stance of this car is defined by the 19x9.5 Mustang RTR wheels. The interior consists of RTR-specific floor mats, shift knob, emblems. Each Mustang RTR owner will become a part of the exclusive RTR registry and will receive a numbered badge with their new machine.
New 2010 Ford Mustang GT RTR will be in select Ford Dealerships in February 2010
"There is no question that Mustang's performance, quality and looks have evolved straight from the factory," says Vaughn. "However, the majority of the Mustang aftermarket has not fully followed the progression with regards to aesthetics. I saw the need to get something out there that was different from traditional Mustang styling; something that could open up a new set of eyes to the already-incredible Ford Mustang, while keeping the current Mustang enthusiast smiling."
The Mustang RTR will be available in multiple color combinations at select Ford dealerships nationwide beginning in February of 2010. This package will first be available with the 2010 Ford Mustang GT; however, a V6 version will be soon to follow. The current estimated price for the RTR package is $7,800.
"Pure passion for Mustang has fueled me and my team every step of the way and is the single reason I decided to chase this dream and never lift – just as I have with my driving career," says Vaughn. "Trust me when I tell you, this Mustang is Ready to Rock!"
Jeff Maldonado has a show car that he drives to work every day. His 2006 Scion tC has 74,000 miles on it. It was also featured at the SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) Show in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Jeff Maldonado of Los Angeles, California brought his modified 2006 Scion tC to the SEMA Show at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Nevada
K&N air intake system in blue is a good color match for the 2006 Scion tC's custom paint job
“I like the metallic blue color with blue flakes,” said Maldonado. “I also like my K&N air intake system and my K&N oil filter. I have to admit the first thing that attracted me to K&N was the blue intake kit, then what attracted me more was the performance I got with K&N.” Maldonado took his ride to Irwindale Speedway near Los Angeles, California for a test run and liked its power. He said he has no plans to race it.
