I've got a 18/35/305 on a 10.5 wheel in the back, it rubs. So I hope you plan on rolling those fenders. Otherwise looking good!
What tires are you looking at?

Either toyo T1R's or pilot sport cup n+ competitions. They shouldn't rub too bad. I'm running 285/30/20's now with 15mm spacers and they just barely rub. The new tires will sit in the exact same area as they do now, and I have the room on the inside. I'll check my offsets and post them.

Thanks Gord I have alot of old pics and vids from back in the day from the track and old necc days

Looking good Ken. To make it a bit easier to look at:




Now we have to hit the track, to see who the better driver is as both cars should be very close as far as power goes.

Cut right at the X, and then welded 3" down pipe to it:

This was definitely by far the best automotive investment I've ever made. $/hp is great. It is a very thorough well thought up kit. I'm just kicking myself I didn't have Sasha build me one sooner

D@mn your black heart to Hades... That looks fantastic as I sit here and continue to kick myself as well. Way to go, Man! I spend enough time drooling over this kit on here that even my GF is like, "if you would actually just buy that thing, you could enjoy yourself instead of tossing off in front of the computer!"
I am getting closer to pulling the trigger but as I over analyze the whole thing, my summer is slipping away. I, hope you really enjoy it.
Those are some big numbers, too! Sasha, is yours still tuned closer to 400hp, or have you adjusted since the headers?

You need to pull the trigger and stop analyzing it

That's a really nice DP. Do you think that you could make that an option for your kit in the future?

I have the same amount of boost (spring pressure) on my car, so the power should be about the same. He (Ken) has a Kinetix intake manifold as well, I am still on the stock one. Ken also has a set of headers on his car, and you can tell this by looking at the power curve (still going up) at 6500rpm. With stock headers, the power would be flat or going down at that point.

Without having the exhaust here for reference, I can not make this an option. There are just too many exhaust options out there to make a down pipe for all of them.
