I'd love to have that thing sitting in the driveway. If you lose interest before the turbo setup is done let me know.

28x10.5 tires will fit just fine in the stock wheel wells. You simply have to trim the bottom of the rear bumper cover, they rub there at high speeds. I had 28s on my last Formula and didn't have to hammer anything, same with this car. Just trimmed the rear cover with a razor blade carefully.

You should make the exhaust come out the vnets on the sides right before the door!
THAT WOUDL LOOK SO AWESOME! -if done right....
Anyway...are you going to give it a paint job, or keep it that color?

Right now the car has Eibach lowering springs in the rear. Seems to sit okay though, so I probably won't change them. The fronts are QA1 coil-overs (12-way single adjustable)
DAKMOR, not much room behind those vents for exhaust. I'll probably get bored and put a custom paint job on the car later.

I'd love to be home working on it, but I'm sitting on a pipeline installation ship in the Gulf for a few weeks. I managed to mangle the crap out of the driver's side header when backing into my garage the day I left. I have a steep lip on the garage entry, and it caught the collector and bent the header in half. ****!!!!
