Hell and that's being modest. 12psi would make over 280whp for sure, when it's tuned. NJ forum don't know squat.

That's why I said 260. Because when I end up putting down 300, I'm going to post it and rub it in their faces.

The funny thing is, everyone who said 280 was impossible on stock internals, drives N/A (350z, Civic, NeonLOL).

just show them my dyno sheet and tell them its yours!!

Hmmm, should I stick to the 08 lower grille, or swap with the 05 lower grille. If I have to remove the bumper to do it, then F it, lol. I think the 05 hides the IC better.

I'll try this weekend, it's raining right now. My 08 grille hides it pretty well, but after seeing B_Real's, I think I want the 05 down there. Plus it'll match my upper 05 grille.

I can vouch that you dont need the bumper off to swap grills. Just if the grill tabs are real snug you have to do quite a bit of forceful pushing..

I have an extra 07 grill and also a 08 grill.. I love the look of the 07 grills way more.. So that will be the first thing i change on my new tC
