personally I thought they weren't bad you can do a lot worse. On here it is hard to get props unless your wheels are jdm and $2000 each or factory wheels plastidipped.

I like the rims but I think I don't like the tire setup the most..and there will be no plasti dipped rims on my car. But I can powder coat in my shop so I mite do that. ...I'll make the final decision when I drop the car this weekend

Rob298mx · 10-21-2014, 04:39 PM

i wasn't mad! Just a wild wheel choice haha

BBRSpeedWorks · 10-21-2014, 05:29 PM

well as you can see my name is blue now. hahahaha.. but here is another update on mods to the car. the dreddy profec, defi temp gauge, ARP L19 head studs and the clutch line came in. i was still in uniform and started the install on the boost controller i.e the location i've een thinking about since i bought it. more parts will be here tomorrow and thursday...But i want to give thanks to Z1 and there great people skills and put up with calling to see when things was going to ship and when they will be here....

Thanks. It's a great spot so you don't have to take your eyes off the road

I need that boost controller. My older profec failed me when I went to z1 last Thursday. It wouldn't hold boost over 11psi

Which spring do you have in the WGs?

The springs have like a 1.5-2 lb tolerance so if you at running the yellow spring Sasha suggested with a boost controller then that could very well be your problem. Your EBC is limited to 100% over the WG spring. When tuning for power I brought the whole bag of springs to my tuner in case I needed to swap for a larger spring. I suggest you swap tp the black spring and dial the last bit of boost in.

What did you end up making at 11 psi by the way?

zguynate · 10-21-2014, 09:05 PM

I have the 7psi springs in it. I wanted 550whp but ended up getting 532whp in 5th gear.
