it was only about a 3 1/3 month wait, and so far its WELL worth it. I've got a Bit of compressor surge b/c the spring in the tial 5mm BOV is the 20-22 " vac. spring so i gotta clip it some. The car rides AWESOME. I absolutely LOVE the IRS w/ the 3/4 coil clipped stock springs..

hicks.

Hicks,
gotta get some lunch first.. then more picture whoring and a idle clip w/ a small blip.. noo boost for you! LOL

Aaron,
not yet man.. gotta finish breaking in the new motor and then gotta take it to ModularPowerHouse in ATL for a tune :D

My Break-in tune from tim has like NO timing.. so w/ 2psi of boost the car doesn't really do anything.. :lol:

only reason i'm thinking wheels first is b/c 255/50/16's = not gonna hook on the dyno.. and i'd like to actually be able to get my car tuned which wont happen if it keeps spinning. lol :banana:

i've already felt 2psi of boost... helps seat the rings during break inn... car doesn't even pull when it gets that boost.. it still drives like a N/A car. there is absolutely NO timing in this tune.. not to mention my a/f at idle is 11.5:1 and @ 1psi of boost = 10:1

Its extremely conservative and rich tune.

looks good. run with a 10.5 rear rim on 315s!!! would be sooo sick


315's cost to much... 295's = $75-125 cheaper depending on brand. and wont "wander" in the ruts of the road
