Damn man, I knew those rims would be wicked on that car!

So how scary is it to drive?

its not scary yet, i havent turned the boost up

Its damn fast though i will tell you that much... A guy dynoed his and got 263 rwhp at 15 PSI. That was with an intake and an exhaust.

I have a downpipe, intake, exhaust and a blitz access ECU so i hoping that i will be right around the 270- 275 wheel HP mark. once i install my boost controller its off to the dyno. I am looking at getting a better intercooler but there is not much out there plus it was hard enough wedging the stock intercooler in the bay let alone one that is going to have a bigger core. I need to take same measurements but i think i can get the spearco sidemount in there. If not i will have to get one tailored to my needs.

i've been thinking about going A2W but it seems like too much of a pain in the neck... if anything i would rather get water injection and just run the stock intercooler...

Water/Meth injection is cool.

I've decided to go A2W for my Corona intercooler, ducting through the floor of all places. But, uhm.. thats all top secret

air to water and or water injection would be good but i would like to keep the weight down and also i could see it be a pain in the ass to setup. Especially the a2w intercooler... running lines all the way to the front of the car getting a proper pump, heat exhcanger overflow etc...

the stock intercooler is working fine now so we will see. I have another idea that i saw someone use where they placed the intercooler down near the tranny where the air flows. It actually worked really well but i bet the intercooler would get pretty beat up/
