nah thats cool, thanks man!

I need to lower the car more though, it doesnt look low enough in your picture lol

[Shipman]

Yup, sorry dude

[one8turbo]

Nice man they're gonna look sweet. Are you reusing the tires or getting new ones? I MIGHT be interested in the blue ones without tires if you hook it up. Obviously talking about in June after you get the new ones on.

Im gonna reuse the tires, but ill hook you up on the rims and you can get them powdercoated a different color.

PM me your number and ill find you on sat and you can take a look at them and possibly make me an offer...then once i get the other wheels and the tires switched we can make a deal.

Also if your interested ill sell you my stock strut/spring assembly with epic engineering lowering springs and also ill throw in the stock springs for 300. I know you said your gonna do the bc brs but the epic springs handle nice

I also have a brand new grimmspeed electronic boost controller for 80 dollars

Little late to the party but now that I saw the blue wheels in person I have to say I kinda like 'em.

No, no you don't. If you lower your car any further you'll be tucking.

Besides, if you lower your car you will have the wrath of Jack upon you!

yea i don't want the wrath of jack upon me.

Update: Waiting for the new wheels to show up, haven't shipped from wheeldude yet but they told me they should be here beginning of June. I'm in no rush.

I'm also looking at some front lips for the car.

Lastly, I have a manual boost controller, so i'm hoping this summer I can pick up a Process West top mount and go EWG and then a retune from ryan!

BTW: If anyone is interested I have a brand new electronic boost controller I am trying to sell, PM me for Price!

Also have epic engineering springs still mounted on the stock struts, trying to sell the struts and springs together, PM me for price!

Just curious as to what made you decide on a manual boost controller

I feel more comfortable knowing i can control the boost controller instead of relying on the electronics.

Not saying the ebcs will not be as effective, i just feel more comfortable with the mbcs.

So i can get a fast motorsports front mount intercooler for 700. The process west top mount is 900 and change. What are everyones thoughts on fmic vs tmic?

what are your goals for the car?

and in terms of quality PW>FMS

[itwillboost]

Well top mounts are more efficent until you hit a certain level. Also the piping etc. comes into play. The car looks good though. I wouldn't plus this motor too hard, I have seen quite a few blow now.
