Default Pics of the Formula

here are some pics....











some pics of the engine bay, and a try at getting a pic of the slightly ported intake port on one of the heads (didn't work out too well though) notice it is also coated in oil

All you need is some "gunk" engine degreaser and the some CD2 engine deatiler to make her shine
What size tires do you have on the back? Looks good!

i have tested a little with cleaning up the engine bay...i just don't know what products to use really...i got some engine degreaser but it didn't really do much...anyhow the rear tires are 315.35.17 sumitumo htrz's...don't know if i'll buy again they have a 10" contact patch...so do my 275's up front they seem to be getting better traction now that i have put a few miles on them...so we will see since they are cheap ~300-350 mounted and balanced

hey, since you have a formy with the prokit...how bad do you scrape, if at all? do you have to be extra careful or anything? i was thinking about picking up a prokit, but i wasnt sure about the duals scraping..

duals don't scrape hardly at all...the front end plastic piece under the car scrapes more than the duals...i have scrapped going reverse out of my driveway pretty fast...but it left about a 2" long mark...i wouldn't worry about it...if you are somewhat carefull you have nothing to worry about...i go over speed bumps slow not because of the exhaust but because the front end of my car...i'd say go for it...i have no problems...it may take a little to get used to...but if you travel the same roads almost everyday then you will know where to be careful...like big rail road tracks...haha...i don't think the duals would be worse than any cat-back ory setup...

Was that 5point7's car? I was wondering where his car went. Either way, the car looks badass.
