are you lowered ?
do you plan on autocross the car alot of missing variables but those tires sizes are not extreme so yes they will work. I would do 245/40 all around if wheels arent staggered.

Just waxed and cleaned up the engine bay a bit. I'm down for tomorrow! Can someone gimmie a call to let me know whats up? I'll bring some microfiber clothes. If anyone could bring quick detailing spray that would be great.

I'm pretty pissed right now. I spotted alot of rock chips on my car . They are everywhere. My plan was to get the spots with the chips repainted or at least touched up and then clear bra it but that doesn't look feasible now.

It is a good tire size or not ?
those will fit, they areny ideal for racing or anything. they fall under the category of being stretched..

whatt? those numbers look good to me! 50-75 hp shy seems a bit optimistic imo..

you were only 10 shy of your 350@ 10psi from what you posted prior to the dyno which seems damn good charlie.

and 410@16psi is nice too. thats like 12whp per 1psi...

i think both numbers are damn good, isnt the average like 15whp per psi? (aslong as youre still in the efficiency range?)

cheer up bro, you hold the record for most whp now
