Im not even allowed to work on the car at my condo per their rules. I can only do so much with my medical s#it I am in mega huge pain just from putting the wheels on. I am gonna try to get the dipstick in again but taking the grommet out that's holding a small block ford dipstick oil just poured out, hard to do alone as well.
I tried a 5mm spacer in the rear on the drivers side, for sure going to put the other one on as you can see the difference.
The rear wheels on the car are sunk in, the 18x7.5" 42mm offset with the 5mm spacer in the rear makes a huge difference. Might use a 5 in front but they are almost flush as is.

I know I'm not one of the cool kids on this site anymore but no yay or nay on the wheels? Besides the fact that they are knock offs lol. I didn't really care about the boo on the knock offs, I can barely afford the car as it is I am maxed out!
This is a budget build and everything has been done by me, with internet research and when I can get it, an extra hand to help out.

I like the wheels and definitely think the spacers are a must! I'm running 20mm on my rear and 15mm on my front on my 93. Obviously the Ion doesnt need as much push to get the wheels flush.
I wasn't sure on these wheels, I am normally a five spoke wheel guy, but I would have ended up buying the same wheels I have already had on it and my Z24.

[quote="robscavz24"]Was going to go color matched on the fronts, but I hate them on Vette's and other sets, so Metallic Black fronts and the projector shroud will be color matched. (NOT PICTURED)

That is with just the 35" long 3" Jones Glasspack/Resonator, I have the biggest Magnaflow Stainless XL 3 chamber oval 4"x9" 3" in/out muffler along with this
3.5" dual wall tip and I want to clean it up and shoot it with Duplicolor Black Chrome. So it will be SUPER quiet until the blower starts whining and I get the WTFOMGBBQ faces.

I have a ati superdampner for sale new in the box, that would look nice on that motor your running and I live in Michigan! Pm if interested i am right around the corner!
Its pig rich right now, it was tuned for a 2.5" pulley, went to the stock 3.14". I have to adjust the fuel setups and still tune for WOT. I just now got it running again.

Had half a tank of 93, went and put half a tank of E85 in and it helped a ton. Debating on going to ZZP or OTTP being they are both about 2 hours away.

Needs moar tune, and ran half a tank of E85 because my MAF tune is based off the 2.5" pulley, this is stock TVS pulley. It needs a @!#$ ton of odds and ends but it runs...

Full tank of E85 and tuning for it, maybe a dyno tune from ZZP. Before that my SSBC front and rear brakes, my spacers front and rear and Bwoody Endlinks go on. Then a nice alignment.
Number guesses?

When I do go, I hope the first number is a 3 or 4, 3xx or 4xx but that's wishing, I also might buy or use smaller than the stock TVS, the 2.5" I have is too small, see if I can get a 2.7" 2.8" 2.9" . I am seeing 15 psi with none of my cooling mods on yet, and without E85. But the auto drivetrain loss.

I've not seen many 2.4 dyno numbers....let alone TVS ones....Hell I was disapointed with my 225wtq on a 3.0 on my MP62
Ignore the last line lol, from another forum.

I was bored can't wait to get rid of the downpipe and weld a flexpipe in it, then my 36" long Jones Resonator would be doing something. Then at least my Magnaflow XL Stainless 3 chamber 3" in/out will go on, and if I can, with a few flexpipes along the whole setup, use the black chromed Magnaflow as well.
Then it will be nothin but whine!

So I measured and remembered the other pulley I have has 70mm written on it, meaning should be 2.8" so its going back on baby!
Since the MAF tune is good for it, and I never had my wideband or boost gauge hooked up with it on, gonna see what she can do once tuneage is gooooood.
