Helllllllll yeaaaaaaaa.

As far as engine mods i'm pretty happy, and done for quite a while.

Just have to put some stuff back on that I have in the trunk.

They are not going to help with speed though, lol.

I'm serious ^^

next on my list:
upgrade braking system
upgrade tires
possible battery relocation
and oil catch can install

after that, which would most likely be awhile, i might start on some body mods... who knows

I'm happy to say that, I turned the car on/off about 4-6 times today (at different times), with zero explosions ^^

Hopefully, it stays that way the next few days. So I can consider it a success, lol.

This tuning bullsh!t is finally making some sense =)

Denny which greddy catch can do you have? The cylinder or the rectangular one?

If im thinkin correctly both tires should "look" the same on the rim. But my opinion I would go with the 235, more tire to make contact on the road FTW, but then again im on 17's lol

how wide of an 18" rim .. are you going 7.5 or 8 inches wide... that would really help determine a good comfortable size.

i would prefer 235 for contact like joe said but at the same time a 40 or even 45 would make the ride less harsh on the your kidneys and you'd feel less bumps on the road...

they are 18x8 +44, i think if i go 235/35 with those i may rub, as right now with my 17x8 +46 with 235/40, im pretty close to the inner fender liner.

Now you tell me!!!, lol j/k
I think you should be alright man, im just not a fan of almost stretching a tire. I think you should be alright with that offset and profile tire.


P.S. I could use your guys opinions as well....In a week or two i want to make an offer on a turby intake pipe....the pipe connecting the filter to the turby and has the MAF flange. How much you guys think I should offer??

in that case 225 might be ur best bet... but at the same time u have coilovers so u can raise or lower to accommodate the thicker tire also
