Hey Rollnnn, is the sprint booster worth it? It's time for me to get a tune and i'm wondering should I just have the guy tune the throttle? You think it'll be the same? I remember you were saying great stuff about SB, feeling tempted to buy one.

Im not sure if it will be the same or not. Remember i have the powerchip tune and that was supposed to get rid of the lag. It did a little but not 100%. I think sprint booster does what its supposed to do...

been awhile since i updated.
Ive done a couple things recently:
Changed my tires to 225/35 front and 255/30 rear. I dont really like the way it rides now but i had to do it in order to push my wheels out a little.
I put a 20mm H&R spacer up front, was a +32 now down to a +12 offset
10mm spacer in rear, +34 down to a +24. Major fender rolling in front and rear.
few more things in the works.
Cant really tell from these pics, but wheels are flush now, not hella flush just flush...

weird. I swear my +26 offset is flusher/sticking out more than yours
I notice how the front wheels had more camber when I had the TEIN SS which cause the top of the wheel tuck in more.

you're talking about the rear right?
When i test fitted the 10mm spacers in back, a week before i did the fender work, the wheels seemed to stick out a little past the fender. After Gilbert at Status pounded the sht out of the fenders it didn't seem to stick out anymore. were your wheels 10", my are 9.5..

my rear is et32 on 9.5 not that flush. on the 18"
the 19x9.5 LM was et27 with the 5mm pfs. looks about the same as you have right now.
only thing that I can think off that makes the rear different is on the account of different wheel manufacturer might have different measurement for the width in total. i.e. some 9.5 width rim actually measure 10.5 when they're from edge to edge instead of where the tire goes.

Hey I saw your car in one of my facebook friend's albums. I think it's a Filipino euro meet. Im friends with Sheree and Lee, she's driving a dropped BMW 3.
Anyway, loving the look of your car, pare. The grille and the diffuser is beautiful!

old tire sizes were f 235/35 f 265/30 and 275/30 before that. The only thing i dont like about the new sizes is you can feel every damn bump and crack and anything in the road, its nowhere near as smooth as my older tires..
no no...i'm talking about the front.
my rear is et32 on 9.5 not that flush. on the 18"
