Cut mufflers, body kit with underglow....I thought someone from one of the facebook groups had snuck on here and made a build thread. Holy smokes was a wrong as I kept reading. I dont see myself getting even halfway to your depth of build, but I enjoy the hell out of reading about it. Looking forward to all future posts. Great intro and welcome to the forum.

We become less critical as whp goes up. You have a motor and blower set-up that can back up the look....

Just glad to see you didn't give the car the knocked knee treatment...

Yep! But dont assume anyone can fit that. It required a lot of calculations. I cant push my camber or toe too much in any direction, or it will rub. At 1.5 degrees camber, no fender stretch or roll, and the liner removed with the screws cut off, i have about 1mm clearance, and if my tire pressure is low, it WILL rub. Given, pirellis tend to have an oversized sidewall, so that may be part or my problem.

Inside,i had to turn the subframe vibration rubbers, change the traction arms, and use a shorter headed bolt, otherwise the wheel rubs on the traction arms. The tire will rub the coilover if i have my static camber set at 1.8 degrees or more.

So static i can run 1.4-1.8 degrees, but nothing outside those ranges. And thats running 0 toe and 0 rear caster/bump

What brand and kind of tire are you running in the back? They look like 11 wide in the back.Traction is going to be a issue with that much power.

I know you know what your doing but you may want to run individual line to your fuel pressure regulator as it goes up when your boost goes up. not sure if having it t off will cause issues.

305/30-20s in the rear, currently pirellis. Going to the pilot sport 4s next.

FPR is currently vac/boost referenced, if that is what you're meaning?

Cool I'm going the same route but with 325 /30/19 on a coupe but having a difficult time finding some wheels that fit. That size keeps my speed perfectly within spec.

i have the heater valves, the fuel pressure regulator, and the bypass valve all tapped into the evap vacuum line. the primary boost control line for the wastegate is plumbed into the PCV vac line, right before the check valve. [/QUOTE]

This. I was just suggesting that your fpr have its own pressure line off the manifold and be off the evap vacuum line.

Ohhh okay, i seewhat you mean. I did consider running a solo line but that would require me to drill/tap a new hole in the intake manifold.

I haven't had any issues so far with the current method. Since its a sealed lineset, its been fine so far. I tried running the FPR and BPV off one evap port and the evap off the other, but this prompted the Evap Low Flow check engine code to pop up. So i went my method instead amd haven't had any issues.

I Wish the sedans had that much room. I can't put 325s in without somre serious bodywork in the rear..
