Ok, Phister. I know you've gone on to other topics since then, but I've been wondering how you fixed your intake problem. The last I heard you suspected that it was running too rich or something, but I never saw the resolution. Did you get it working right? What did you do? Do you notice a difference in performance?
If I missed it, I apologize, but I just spent a half hour following this thread from where you were having the problem and I never saw how it came out.
The car is looking great, BTW. Too low for me, but you've made some very nice mods and those wheels look great!

Gonna paint roof once my friend repaints the whole car. I'm upset with myself because I did a small curb rash on my rear lip! FML. Gonna call up CCW and order another lip. They sell outer lips for like 200. Was thinking about getting 4" lips and see if I can remove the 5mm spacer in the rear and see if I can fit 11" in the rear since I pulled the rears so much.

Your Car is Absolutely Amazing!
Do you have any videos uploaded of the car rolling? If not... I think you should!!!!
I'd also love to hear your exhaust, Duals my are my next step but I can't decide on which way to go.

Have to wait till he emails me some of the pics. Took about 2hrs to do the shoot. Got some pretty sweet ones that look crazy stanced. Going to order my 3.5" lips for the rear and push to 10.5" wide in the rear. I'll have to remove my spacer but it'll allow me to fit the extra 0.5" because I need 12.5mm extra for the extra lip so if I remove my 5mm spacer I'll only need 7.5mm room from lip to fender and I have that much room or only need to pull it somemore a little bit.

really hard to do camber plates for the rear the way our rear suspension is designed. ghostrider camber kit is best bang for buck for camber I think for the rear.

Front looks raised because I was parked on a slight slope. Ordering my 215/40 soon to get the front lower and modding a reservoir to replace the OEM one. I know my lip is gonna die once this happens lol gonna have to order another one. Someone hook me up with a cf lip.
