Neg. Just the front was fine with me. I think it could be too much. I've lightly scuffed this thing a few times already. The 2.5" brings the lip that much lower and further from the car.

Guys, GOOD GOOD call on the bumper wrap. I knew something wasn't quite right also, and it was definitely the wrap. Voila. This looks SO much better.

I decided to give the MS6 a bit of a facelift. I started by ordering: All Fit Lip Kit with 1.5" lip, for front/rear bumpers: Lip Kit For Cars | Traditional 1.5 Inch All-Fit Lip Kit And Diamond XXL powder coat black grille mesh from customcargrilles.com...

I used my 0WG maf cal map for before/after comparison of intercooler impact. The results are predictable. For similar IATs and conditions, the TR82 horizontal cooled the air ~15F cooler than the TRV1859 vertical (graph posted). This comes at a cost of flow however. You can see in the attached...

I already posted all this somewhere else, but seeing as it's helpful I thought I would post this here. I had a curiosity about vertical vs. horizontal FMICs for our cars. I've been reading papers/articles/forums regarding vertical flow/horizontal flow front mount intercoolers. The general...

I know the shop puts synthetic in trans and rear axle when I have the fluids changed every 30k miles. I'm not sure what they used. It's a good shop so I'm sure they use decent stuff.

I'm under NDA, but I'm sure CS will share my findings when they get it all worked out. I have to pull it for smog soon so I'm gonna get it cleaned up and powdered I think.

Oh yeah, it's putting down ~340awhp/~360wtq @ 26psi. Rob tuned it initially and I've been dialing it a bit since.

Many of you have seen and/or been a part of this build over the last 5! years. Yup, five years kiddos. I bought this bone stock in 2012 with 33k miles (and low compression in #3 out of the gate). This isn't a build thread as much as a here's where I am now, and I'll update as I go along from...

I gave Corksport a formal report. Maybe you can kindly ask them to share it??

I just realized I've been running this IM for over a year. Why haven't the rest of you installed yours yet? Long term review: It is a hard part of course and no wear/tear failure is expected. I haven't had any issues with airleaks or anything else regarding the intake manifold. I haven't...

Anybody got any dank memes to liven up my shitty welcome thread?

FYI, the pump doesn't suck. It needs a gravity feed, i.e. supply and/line above pump, or at least flat in short runs. If you have any issues with inconsistent spraying, I would find a way to fix that up. Here's a quick test. If your meth tank is full and if you pull the 1/4" supply line...

I'm kind of a big deal, so no need for my backstory. Also, I have many leatherbound books that smell of mahogany. Long story short, I'm here to rape faces.
