If it runs and looks good, put the money in the bank.

I vote for HFC (or TP if you like noise) then CAI.

I'd either go Stillen G3's or an oil cooler, since you're in Florida

clear bra.

happytheman · 05-29-2011, 08:22 AM

Yah, I've def thought about the clear but I've got some blemishes to take care of first (not to mention that the clear bra w/installation is going to run me ~$1200).

I haven't tracked the car and don't really plan to, so I'm going to see how my temps do. So far I seem to maintain @ ~180°.

How do you manage to maintain 180 in florida? Even during 60-70 degree wheather here in Chicago, I would hit at least 200 and if I am hard on the car then I will see 220-230.

Good question sir! Unfortunately it's one I cannot explain.

get spacers and save up to get a real exhaust if you're doing a catback.
