kahmann Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 If your mod list in your signature is up to date and the A/F on your dyno sheet is accurate, then I'd say that you're at a safe power level. I wouldn't suggest adding any more power mods to this setup, however. Was this on 91 or 100 octane? Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can really tell the difference when taking off. The tune is safe according to FRPP and Whipple, I have no issues...the intercooler is big on these. I have not nor will I modify the tune. The car while not unsafe, is very sketchy with the stock tires on it sideways any time you want...throttle control is key. I just ordered new skins for some 19" wheels yesterday...we will see.... I love it glad you are digging yours!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rush_junky Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 so i still got my stock 18" rims, which tires do you guys recommend? whats the widest tire i can go with the stock rims? I have 285/40-18 Eagle F1 tires on my stock rims on the rear. They are hard to install but work and look just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
