i actually already have a 3in. band clamp that joey gave me, but im not sure that will work... i mean, the I pipe has to be clamped HARD, im not sure any clamp can squeeze it that hard, but ill try... i might just weld it.

as for the little battle going on about this whole srt4 thing... that would be a cool race to see, josh with all his parts on, vs. mikes srt4 when its done... good contribution for this "import vs. domestic" vid. josh what are you shooting for with your future setup, like 430whp? maybe more since you seem to have hidden mods you dont even know about, lol.

ya... everybody on my thread about zo6's vs. tt2's, everybody is like you gotta get tt2's! you wont be dissapointed!... but im scared of ruining my rear end, beating my car with a hammer, rolling the fenders, and using spacers and everything... like i said im starting to think 315's are alittle excessive for my application and DD street use...

why not get 295's. they fit perfect and no moding neccessary and still give you plenty of grip, its all gonna depend on the tires you get anyway. and i dont like the way black rims look at all on that color car. i think chrome or polished alluminum would look best.(chrome better though)

18x9.5, no problems at all, just get a good tire thats what matters, unless you just want it for the wider look which is cool

Yeah don't get cheap tires...Make sure they're good...They might cost more, but there is a reason why they do...

thats what im leaning towards... a 9.5" wheel with some NICE tires on them... rather than a huge 11" wheel with crappy tires... damn, now that puts the EVO's and ruff's back in the game lol... this is hard.

josh, 500 N/A would be badass, its all in the tune be careful with that 150 shot though... dangerous stuff. mike (iownedu) was telling me that he talked to a guy that knew the original owner of his car, and i guess they shot a 75 through it, then 100, then 175... and they even did a hard launch WITH 175 shot at the track, i bet that was a BADASS time slip lol

look at the sign that says "airport... terminal 2" and go there.

jk... as far as i know, you come down the usual way, till you come up on that "loop" where you merged on the 101, well instead of heading west on the 101, you need to keep going straight on I-17 (south) then there will be another loop where the 101 comes around to the I-17 and you head EAST i believe, you'll go through a long tunnel and all that crap, just look for big tall buildings thats all i know lol.

just curious on your plans for the 500whp. you planning on stroking it, sleeving it, or just hoping a big cam, big flowing heads, and 90/90 intake will you get you there.

milled AFR's, Big cam, ported 90mm, EWP, all the bolt ons, and a good tune...I think 450+ is certain...

what compression ratio you looking for? 450+ would be a fn monster and def possible.
