LETZgoBUDDY: BOOSTED on AIR - Page 10
Looks good! You should check out this website for tires http://www.onlinetires.com/ there warehouse is local so saves you shipping. Thats where I get mine.
Eamon - bro, I'm so semi flushed right now it nuts... i look like one of them 240 guys who mix match rims... but i'm not flush haha
i need to find a place that can do a front end alignment... 714tires and wheel ware house stopped hooking me up with <$50 alignment so if somebody can point me the right direction, that'd be great
FmtC - white rims look so different man and most people that I've talked to liked my Miro's more, but I love em.
Mesh always looks great, but i always wanted Grids right when it came out so it's like satisfying a crave that i've waited for so long for haha

They were on page 9 mang ha I had a long ___ week and I finally got the ball rolling
Got my spacers ;p

Loaded up the whip with wheels and tires and damn was it a heavy ride


Went to Ali's place on Main St. with Eamon and got a sick hookup on tire mounting



Currently rockin 2 sets for a couple of reasons -
1) Didn't buy front tires for my new setup so I needed to swap my current tires onto the new wheels
2) Reduce the wear while being super stretched and lower the chance of getting bubbles
Kinda lookin funky at the moment but it's temporary until I get my fronts totally flattened and my rears totally shaved so if anybody got ideas of where to go, lmk
Went to my girls house after and I thought it was my b-day...

What I've Been Up To
---------------------
- installed the front spacers
- found a broken top hat strut bolt on my air struts (FML)
- copped a used yakima rack w/ a loadwarrior, fairing, and locks for a bomb deal. Gonna post pictures when I get my camera back
I'm hearing some clunking sound when going in low speeds. I tightened everything down and I've narrowed it down to the bent end link I have, the broke strut bolt, or the brakes. I had a similar clunk when I replaced my brake pads... Pished meh owt guys

It's been a while but I did some serious werke these couple of weeks... Now that I'm on a break for a week, Imma enjoy everything I did. So let's start...
Installed a Tsudo mid-pipe 60mm



Tsudo Mid-Pipe Review:
Install probably took 30 min. Self explanatory and it didn't come with directions. 60mm with a cat-delete and an 18in resonator, which I thought was pointless. Once installed, I took it for a spin and noticed I sounded (IMO) like a ricer honda boy. Raspy at high revs, and the low growl of the tanabe exhaust disappeared. Every time I go over 3k, it just sounded like it was ready to cough out something fierce. I chose this mid-pipe over the Megan Racing one because it is wider in diameter for my needed goal, but I couldn't live with it due to having nightmares the night of. So early in the morning I bought this

Had it installed at Plaza Mufflers in the Orange Circle for a great price and it sounded great again. Loud and an amplified version of the stock mid-pipe with the tanabe exhaust.
6/4/12 - My girl and I dropped off Alexxis here


If you don't know where this is, you'll get it later... Kareem was very accommodating. Answered every question I had with a rationale, told me what I needed and didn't need for my goals, and kept me updated about my car every day.
6/6/12 was when everything was done. Then had my car dyno'd at Churches on 6/9/12


With this little guy installed for some mo Powa!

And after the long wait and the suspense, not to mention an empty wallet... Here she is with her new shoes, straight from the "gym"


Can you see what's in the bottom grill?


How about now?

Well if you can't, that's fine by me. Painted it black so you can't see it from afar. Either from that, fitment is to my liking.


Before

After



I thought I had a big enough will power to ease up on her when i first got it... I was definitely wrong. Officially boosted 6/9/12 and after 2 days, I've been trying to limit myself to at least 1 pull per drive. So far so good, got my fingers crossed for how long she'll last now.
And since it's summer, I'm putting on my fancier shoes tomorrow. Wasted a couple of bux for an alignment before but at least I knew it fit. Now I'll be ridin low and quick!

ya buddy! I got an extra turbo sitting in my room too... matter of fact, I got a gang load of stuff I wanna sell regarding turbo... as for the numbers, I'll have to get a picture of the dyno results some other time, but as for now I'm keeping my figures a secret ;p
it's stupid fun tho, now I'm debating if I'm going to keep my air...
