I am going to play with the FIC for a while before going boost to see what if any power I can get out of a re-tune, some cold plugs and a hi-test blend of fuel (20% 118oct/80% 93 E0 pump gas) on an otherwise stock setup!
Oh great!!! I'm looking for a FIC and hope to soon get it. Your NA tuning --> FI tuning path intrigues me a lot...

I will stay tuned, trying to learn...

Thanks for sharing,

As I thought they would be...Awesome, but, like Bthasht said you gotta go lower to get the full effect....
Big Mike give us an angle shot so we can see what the offset looks like...

whoops i 4got to look too!
With these rim/tires I will take 70 pounds off the 4 corners of the car. The stock rims and Eagle GT's. 39lbs. per setup vs 22lbs.w/ the new ones and 4 wheel spacers. Gett'n the MPG back and at $4 a gallon that a good thing.

@ Perrenoud Fit: Nice paint job on the wheels! Its been I while since I've seen a GD at stock height with the correct sized 15 inch tires but dang, I did not remember the gap being that much. Did you ever get your springs ordered and in yet?

Decided to paint my fogs black today. Looks cleaner. Probably going to do black housing during the summer.
