I would paint that bottom lip white.

The wheels don't flow with the rest of the car.

You have to much going on for all of that not to work well.

G is a sexy car keep it clean.

Car looks almost border line Raced out.

This just IMO!

I understand what you're saying. I don't doubt the accuracy of the quote you received. I just meant that any time you introduce boost to an engine, you should plan on running into issues and problems that, in getting solved, will only cost you more money. That's all I meant. I think, in planning F/I, one should double whatever costs are initially anticipated with the project. I'd be willing to bet that this on-the-face $13,000 venture of adding 250+ horsepower to the G, will likely end up closer to $20,000+ or more. I bet the few guys who have already installed twins, would agree with me that there are some incidental/unanticipated costs associated with boost. Anyway, I'm sure you've done the necessary research.

But I wasn't questioning your quote. Good luck when you finally pull the trigger on the twins...

I recommend Camber Kits

If you don't want to lower and the tires are rubbing. Consider getting the Camber kits at least. So you can give more negative camber to your car. Would look much cooler, and no more rubbing.

Now on sale at JEB Performance. PM me for your special price.

By the way your car looks very nice

In a sends your right but im not gonna get greedy with power im thinkinglike 480rwhp is more than enough besides its only a stage 1 so it wont really beat on the engine much concidering the hr motors take alooootttttt of beating upgrading the fuel system is all it really needs ohh yeah I forgot to add im gonna be also adding a os geiken twin plate touring clutch (touring=not at hard to drive daily because it has a sprung hun) and os geiken flywheel with cbs injectors and ss clutch lines...all included with the 12700 price making it 12900 cause im gonna throw the guys a nice tip too...clutch n flywheel is all I need to keep the engine safe not tryna do internals unless I absolutely need to...


Now as for the drop..after the twins im gonna get bags right away so I can drive on sto k height around da city probibly gonna buy my boys setup once he parts out this coming summer...

And the lip.. the lip is brand new the one in the pictures I already sold n got a new fresh one. Cause that one was shot..and yes I will be painting it this time..

i'm an IP and CF guy myself but the balance seems to be off... Then again I feel the same about my ride but that's because of my wheels no longer compliment the direction I went with my ride.

Ok here's what IMO do, get new wheels, I'd say go 20s maybe like vossen or a black wheel, mold that lip paint it white, get a cf lip or the whole trunk white, get some bags to drop it, that'll be clean and nice.
