Re: got my third gen started

Cool...I remember seeing a car at Johny's shop(transmission shop) with a cali generalz decal on it. Looked similar to yours.

What are you doing for the gauges? Did you get a converter box, fourthgen cluster, or did you go fourthgen dash all the way?

ooh ok . is your car lowered? im sure you can get away from scraping while using the 2.5 duals. guess it depends on the skill/experience of the welder.

my tranny k member hits before it ever hits my exhaust. but yet again im running a wack 2 1/4 piping up front into a y merge back to a 3 inch..

"Get it dialed in and bring it to LA Invasion so that we can whoop some TPIs"

That should be no problem. The question is how bad will you whip the TPI's.

There's 2-3 TPI that I'll be worried about but I'm bringing my car a little more track friendly and have since fixed a few launch & shifting issues that I had last year

FYI, you can use the "Quote" or multi-quote button instead of copying and pasting previous posts
