Thank you!! It has really come together over the last couple weeks.

I think I'm going to hold on to this one for a while lol.

Picked the car up from the exhaust shop yesterday. Tomorrow is supposed to be nice, I plan to do a couple of pulls for kevin so he can get the tune squared away.

Been loving the car this weekend.

Kevin is dialing in the tune and the car is pulling hard. Lots of rain in the forecast this week so I hope to pick back up the tuning process next weekend.

Few things I've noticed since driving it that needs some attention. Driver side front wheel bearing is whining. So ill have to replace that.

Passenger side header is leaking.. not very happy about that since I just had everything apart.

Also I can't wait to get those rear lips rolled so I can drop the back end down a tad.

All in all I'm very happy with the car. Looks great, sounds great and pull strong.

Really looks fantastic, congrats!

i went through the thread and you said you already had the Welds, right? Can you post the specs? 17's front and 18's rear? Width, offsets, and tire sizes? Love the way they sit, esp in the front. Thanks

They are 18x9 front and 17x11 rear. 275/35r18 r888s and 305/45r17 mickey s/s.

Unfortunately i dont have the backspacing/offset information because i bought them second hand from @Intervention302

Maybe he can chime in if he remembers the specifics

Looking good! Has to feel nice to finally be able to drive it
It really does feel great. The header leak is killing me though.. i don't have the time to drop the kemember and redo them.

But Kevin has it pulling hard. I can tell its going to be an absolute monster when I do the e85 tune.

The plan is going to be get the car down yl florida, fix the header leak and then resume the 93 tune and follow up with the e85 tune. I dont see any reason why I shouldn't be making 750+ on e85

Really nice combo you put together, car should hit that number on E with no problem down in Florida. I've been trying to land a job in Florida for years! My entire family is there, but i cant seem to leave Colorado :(

Good luck with the relocation. I'am sure you'll definitely get to enjoy the car more with the nicer weather all year long.

I have the specs saved somewhere.

You interested in a set?
