...This is why both times I've gone with the suby 440's...

He mentions it that they are Subaru's

[greddy]

terrific mod, considered doing it on my 440s, but then decided I wanted to stick with mitsu parts everywhere and got the evo 565s, plus I don't need 860s lol, good work Marc

[djhah]

i didnt see that lol, thats what i was thinking.

[Ivory8g]

You know, I heard about this awhile ago my self, and when i got my 440s I was going to get them flow tested and cleaned, and talk about my flow options,

Sent from my PG86100 using Tapatalk 2
i think it would be cool to do this mod to another set and get them flow tested just for kicks.


Damn if I would've known I would've stuck with the 440's and not messes with resistor boxes and shit.
I know huh? I actually forgot about it myself until I saw my idc's were almost 90% then it triggered the memory lol.

Definitely a great mod. I'm pretty happy with this mod. I still gotta get them all dialed in 100% before I do a pull to see where my idc's will be. I'm guessing 40% LOL

[unclepaulie]

wow, didnt even know you could do that. thats awesome.

[Ivory8g]

wow, didnt even know you could do that. thats awesome.

best kept secret ftw! :)

[Ivory8g]

Did my first pull after the injector mod and I damn near hit what my idc's would be. 41% at peak. this is only a 2nd gear pull though so I going to wait till I can really sit down and tune and a 3rd gear pull to see what I end up for idc's
I punched it aroud 4500 rpm as you can see the spike in the rpm line(teal line)
The airflow is spot on.(brown line)

Why didnt I get to tune my car? Etuned another evo x tonight and sucked up my 2 hours of tuning time lol.

Stock Evo X turbo, Grimmspeed 3-Port EBCS, test-pipe, exhaust, intake, UICP.
Tuned for repeatable death dealing! :) three back to back pulls on the stock intercooler.
I think this is like my 16-20th evo x I've tuned -___- LOL

Looking real sinister. Love it! I keep thinking it could use tints, but if you blacked out the interior and left the windows clear, that would truly set it off!

Thanks man! I'm definitely going to tint it. Which reminds me I need to order the precut sheets and do it. I thought about doing that blackout on the interior but I think I actually like the tan. A little color inside the black cloak and the tan disappears at night. so tint it is!

[wetamup2k3g]

Cool, cool. I love tint anyway, I'll never have another car without tint!

[Ivory8g]

agreed! I only made it this long because it was winter. Today hit 77 degrees and I was like this aint gonna work LOL

What is the benefit of the egr delete?? And what aluminum reservoir is that??

Lower intake temps, less prone to vacuum leaks, mine failed threw a P0401 and I said screw buying another egr for $70 another when the blockoff plate is $10 shipped. The aluminum reservoir is from ebay $30 shipped and about $100 less than most of what I see out there with the same quality. Welds are tight and its seriously solid. Its comparable to the mishimoto unit

Ahh ok didn't know that either. Doesn't the EGR delete throw a code?

[4g63lover]

Also what do you do with the coolant line that goes to it is there a nipple behind it for coolant to go back into the system? I haven't even dug that deep into it so I honestly don't know lol

[specter6633]

whats that lip

[OMEGA PHX]

Also what do you do with the coolant line that goes to it is there a nipple behind it for coolant to go back into the system? I haven't even dug that deep into it so I honestly don't know lol

The coolant goes back to the system through a nipple on the water pipe

[Ivory8g]

Ahh ok didn't know that either. Doesn't the EGR delete throw a code?
Yep! The system only throws a code if its not hooked up to the vacuum solenoid Im leaving all that in since it has to be there for emissions. Running water meth I shouldnt have any buildup problems in the intake

That lip really sets it off. Been thinking of doing the same, but have been putting it off to use my money for stuff I for sure want/need for the car. Not to mention fear of it not coming out as good as yours and paulie's lol. You guys just using double stick tape or/and screws?

Thanks bro! It really was about $25 entirely. Less for me since I already had the double side sticky tape.
I put the 3m tape on one side and a screw to get it started then I noticed it looked like a dam oreo with grey filling so I just used screws for the rest of it and it holds great. Used my power drill all the way around putting in the screws and washers. Once one side is lined up its just matching up and moving down the line. really easy!

[8thLS6]

Nice, thanks man

[Ivory8g]

Nice, thanks man
For sure man


So installed the egr delete and completely eliminated the vacuum leak I couldn't track down. BEST $10 EVER! Car idles smoother than stock! aka I probably had a failing egr affecting my car the whole time -__- I still cant believe how smooth it is. The sound of the car is DEEP now. Like people were starring when I was rolling down the street driving like a normal motorist.
Soldered/wired up/installed a second slim radiator fan (yeah I sound like a jet at idle now)
Took it home and installed the new coolant reservoir and went to tighten the hose to the barb next to the radiator car and the barb straight fell off >:-| RAWR!!!! I had a turrets moment right then and there. Ordered an aluminum 2bar civic half radiator, evo torque solutions radiator stay, aluminum bumper quick releases like my evo. In the meanwhile I'll probably get another stocker from a junkyard tomorrow.

[wetamup2k3g]

Hmm, never seen a radiator break there, I guess it becomes a weak point over time.

[Ivory8g]

Yeah it was weird. Usually they crack along the top or something. Ah well.

[specter6633]

Whats a egr delete?

[Ivory8g]

Whats a egr delete?

The EGR valve controls a small passageway between the intake and exhaust manifolds. When the valve opens, intake vacuum draws exhaust through the valve. This dilutes the incoming air/fuel mixture and has a quenching effect on combustion temperatures which keeps NOX within acceptable limits.

Deleting the valve yields
-cleaner intake manifold
-less of a chance of a vacuum/boost leak
-little bit less clutter in the engine bay

[Ivory8g]

So went to the junk yard and pulled another radiator with the wife.
Threw it back in and put my slim fans back on today. The old one was HIDEOUS on the inside.

Drove the car to the gas station and back and the car pulls and extra 4 in/hg vacuum. I was cruising on 20! holy crap if I was at sea level i would be passed 20 that is going to be awesome for gas mileage. people were saying that egr delete makes you waste a little more gas. maybe on a stock tune. lol

[Isaurio]

Just take the EVAP also.

[Ivory8g]

Just take the EVAP also.

I'm tempted to but I dont want to pull it cause its just going to have to go in come emissions time. It aint broke I aint fixing it right now :P


So I did some fuel trim tuning as well today so the car isnt pulling fuel. On the highway a hopped up diesel truck was tailgating me and egging me on so I dusted him in one pull lol. He then proceeded to follow at a safe distance of 8 car lengths LOL

http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a84/hakkeshou/The%20Tumbler/tumblerissexy5.jpg
The engine bay with the coolant reservoir. So stealthy! I used orange line that matches the ksports perfectly to run from the radiator to the reservoir. I like the pop and it ties the front of the bay to the back.

Also update on the whole radiator thing. With a 10" slim fan and a 7" slim fan my coolant temp never hits half way lol. Each fan flows 1730 cfm.

[8thLS6]

Car staying as cool as it looks..also nothing like surprising someone being annoying starving for attention only for them to fall back and never get beside you lol

[spdracr]

I looked up that aluminum coolant reservoir on eBay found one similar to yours but it didn't have the bracket welded on it.

[Ivory8g]

Good point! Lol

Haha yep. I know I dont have to tell you this but other people might read it, make sure and clean both surfaces, let it dry and put your tape on. I put a worm clamp around the can to keep pressure on it for a day so it's well bonded

[Ivory8g]

I think my car met up with Ivory or something. Developing an attitude like hers lately.
Last night I was like "wow the coolant temp never reaches half way and all is good. Kinda makes the half radiator I ordered pointless. Maybe I'll just return it."
What did the car decide to do?
Punch a hole in the radiator with the turbo of course LOL. Sitting there looking all smug like HAH I get my half radiator now right?! ^_^

-___-

[8thLS6]

How did it manage that? Just by natural movement of the motor? Well I guess on the bright side you have the rad on its way.

[Ivory8g]

It was sitting pretty close with the old radiator and the new bigger turbo but never hit it. I pulled the radiator from a 2003 galant 4g64 and it was a slightly thicker core. it was touching. So I hit boost and the turbo let the radiator have it. LOL I guess mitsu upped the core size just a tad on the 2003's. Ah well half radiator is going in for sure now and there will be some more engine room. I just dont want to change it all out and burp the system AGAIN! lol.

[Isaurio]

Half rad all buttoned up and got a chance to log temps and max i hit in city driving with traffic was 205*F on a 70*F day

This is the way I tucked my tb cable on Ivory and The Tumbler

Unhook your throttle body cable and runit behind the engine block and along the subframe

I then re-ziptied the cable along the lines along the firewall (redid it with blue zipties so its easy for everyone to spot)
http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a84/hakkeshou/861E68E6-2A56-4E39-9A50-BD8DD60FB460-38445-00000EA531AF181A-1.jpg

It should easily make a "U" shape and fire directly back to the throttle body

[mrg7243]

only 450??

[Ivory8g]

where do you see 450? lol

[mrg7243]

ALT MAP little box, peak is 6871?

[Ivory8g]

I know where you're looking haha I was being coy.
thats a "420" in that box not a "450"

Also I have it setup to give "heartbreak dyno" numbers. I've run off on a built evo x on e85 making 502 whp on a mustang dyno on the highway ;)
This is my silver x. not the white one in the pictures that got that massive ams 900x turbo kit

[mrg7243]

5 and 2 mess me up. Might be part dyslexic or some shit. I thought goal numbers were in the 650 range?

[mrg7243]

And 420 living in Colorado the irony

[Ivory8g]

Haha yeah tell me about it. Too bad I don't touch that stuff.
And where's you get 650 from? I'm stock block. Lol. 420-450=plenty of beat downs. On stock turbo my car handed people their asses haha. 411ft/tq ain't no joke

Not sure I could have sworn you were building the block.

[Ivory8g]

I will *eventually* build a sleeved 2.2L yes I did mention that in here at some point but im not going to be going anywhere near 650. Torque will be the name of the game. I never understand peoples building theories. hp= top speed. whos gonna try and hit 180-200 mph on the street? LOL. tq=how fast you get there. on the street torque is the name of the game.

[mrg7243]

As great as tq is it breaks shit, I want a well rounded motor with a smooth powerband. Plus you know people talk mainly in hp numbers for bragging rights haha

[unclepaulie]

fark, bj's galant looks so tough. want that motor so bad haha

[Ivory8g]

Its all about smoothness when it comes to torque. People want to feel a torque "hit" and tune accordingly......THAT is what breaks stuff. My cars and peoples cars I tune have some of the smoothest torque bands around because I tune for the torque curve. No spun/flattened bearings, vented blocks, or broken driveline parts on my tunes or cars ;)
And its sad but true, hp#'s = penile measurement tool. Funny cause they usually dont get the girls HAHA

I did this route and it ended up being pulled too much. I just drilled the holes a bit more and it works fine.

I did mine to. Even with the evo tb, the cable is on the opposite side. You could see on my built thread.

Well so I've come to the conclusion that I'm bowing out from the Galant community as a whole. Met some cool people and made life long friends but I've just about had it. I'm not going to name names and all that but the long and short of it I tuned a car and got stabbed in the back and it just really left a bitter taste in my mouth, and I'm done. The only reason I'm typing this is so that people wont wonder what happened or where I went. All the people that I'm close to know how to get a hold of me.

But on another note. Nah bro you dont have too leave as a whole. Just dont do any favors anymore unless members payup first.

I get fucked too here. Doing xml, and coding and no type of donation for my time. But is cool i just stop doing it and done. Let them go to evom or club3g even open ecu. You know what! they wont do shit for the galant community.

People think hard work is for free.

If you look big gurus on evom. They got a toms toms of donation to do disassembly for the ecu. To name a few mfred, tephra, acumus and others members. Lots of evos guys knows the importance of keeping the programers and tuners happy because there is not a lot that will sit down and start coding specially for some cheap ass members.

Here on the galant community is sad that members dont see the big picture of smart member like you.

So dont let a members get the best out of you. Just keep doing what u do best.

Dont worry this member will be back with some other shit. Next time fuck that is a no no. Specially from me.

Well I'll post what I posted on the fb group here. Purely because I dont want anyone else to get caught is this losers wake. On the forums I believe his username is Galant2010. Dude who bought Fred's old G.

"Thanks everyone. Well some good points made I dont want anyone else getting screwed over so thats the only reason why I will go farther into detail.
Several months back now I was contacted by Marlon Brandow through my facebook tuning page Apex Powered about tuning his galant he was planning on boosting. Many messages back and forth concerning the process and walking him through it as well as how much I would charge to tune his car. I didnt collect payment because my work ethic compels me to tune the car first make sure the customer is happy and THEN get paid. I also charged him less because he has kids to look after. Anyways he finished boosting his galant. At this point its ready to be tuned, got some help from my buddy Isaurio on the xml and tuned Marlons car. Car is running fine, he had a few boost leaks to take care of but thats because he used worm clamps and werent torqued correctly. Easy stuff to fix and car was running fine. He was on a time crunch since its his daily and he has to take kids to school in it. Tuned it in under an hour. I told him I would do a touch up tune free of charge once the car was pressure checked and there were no leaks to make sure afr's would not change. Since it was 99% done on my part I asked for payment and thats where the bs started. All the excuses in the book. He's strapped for cash/ he has too many things on the car to fix/ blah blah blah. All this being said while I watch him paint his wheels and post pics, challenge people to races, driving to the lake to chill with family. Where are you getting the gas money? Where are you getting the money to paint your wheels? Confront him about it nicely and he deletes me from facebook LOL."

Bro I know. I see it day in and out in the evo world since I am on those forums as well. Coding and programming is so complex its just as complicated as tuning the actual car once you have access to it. I agree with you 100%


I hope you dont go (i was enjoying this thread) but if you do choose that route CO isnt too far from Vegas lol hope to still see you around in the galant or the evo.

Big whoop! Should have told him welcome to the world of modding and tuning. Thats expected from Turbo cars, (leaks, wrong temp spark plugs and gaps, bad coils, bad injectors, bad maf and map sensors... I've been going to with friend to dyno his race car for a long time) you weren't in the wrong in asking for payment. Turbo charging a car and strapped for cash don't go hand in hand. Also its not the tuners fault things need to be fixed, your services were provided 99% of the way at the best of your ability with what you had to work with, he should have paid up at least 90% of the way, most sane people would have just paid in full and came back to touch up the map once the little things were taken care of. Marc you aren't going nowhere bro, you're gonna stay and bullshit with us forever and that's that.

Yep exactly. I was asking him why he even bothered turboing the car if he didnt have to money put aside and tied up already to have it tuned. And how he could pay for gas and paint his wheels and talk crap to people about racing and he has the balls to tell me if thats what he wants to do he can. Some people I swear. My mouth just dropped lol. I assume he's a single parent, even if hes not my priorities would be on feeding my kids not a car. Glad you didnt go through with that transaction. He supposedly doenst even have a paypal lol. Thanks Matt I appreciate it man.

Exactly! All the mechanical help and walking him through stuff and info, psh I know shops where you bring your car 100% percent or youre going home with no tune so YOU can figure it out and bring it back. I know when I do ANYTHING to my car I have that money put aside everyday, search for parts for hours, draw models, prototype etc. There's no way you can boost a car and not have money to pay for tuning let alone extra gas money to actually enjoy the boost.

[wetamup2k3g]

I figured you were mad bro, you too level-headed to make a rash decision like that. This is good that we know, because now he has explaining to do. Now he either has to make things right or join another car community with a another car (more money) and leave Galants alone. Good luck finding another platform that you can buy into as cheaply and has helpful, non-douchy members like this community has. So it'd be in Marlon's best interest since he's two Galants in to fix this situation quick.

[Ivory8g]

For sure bro. I dont think he's going to sell his car/cars he probably figures he doesnt need the community at all lol. W/E I'm sure he'll sneak back on or whatnot but if he ever speaks up or asks for help he's screwed lol

The grand national guys all use meth. Not sure if I like the idea of it.

[Ivory8g]

meth is dangerous when
A: part of the system fails or a line is kinked and there is no spray. higher timing and no failsafe=boom
B: people pass mbt (minimum best timing) while tuning and keep going=boom

I plan on running it for the steam cleaned engine and for reliability. And lower IAT's (intake air temp) I'm not planning on increasing timing. No danger if the car can run the timing on its own. running 11.8 afr now, I'll probably run closer to a 11.0-11.5 at WOT

Hmm never thought of it that way. Though to me I dont think the gains would be there just for lower IAT

Could of hit that HDR-ish filter on the crapple =P

Looks good man. For your tune, wouldn't you want to keep your AFR closer to 12's for torque? Maybe it's more of a preference lol.
I still need to bug you for some more getup and go for my daily 2.4L

So far I bumped timing up by 3 between 3krpms and 5.5krpms between 60 and 100 load (put 10k miles on it since). Didn't really notice much on the butt-dyno but makes me feel better. I could use some guidance for NA power!

[Galantman03]

I think it dries on the fenders first because its sloped way more then the hood.

[8thLS6]

Glad to hear Tumbler is still going, cant wait to see whats up next

i hate the hdr on the iphone. ugh. so over saturated.
Yeah 12's are awesome but you have to consider the engine is going to run hotter and the head design isnt the best and cant keep cool and efficient. Thats why i run a richer afr for safety and the cost of torque. Our cars arent lacking in the torque department by any means at a richer afr. Also more timing wont do much without less fuel saturation and more air going in for a cleaner burn.

That totally makes sense! hah never stopped and thought about it.

^_^ Tumbler is gonna get some tlc on my 3 days off

[Ivory8g]

So didn't get to repaint her on 3 days off. Oil feed line broke (oil on everything)in the insane temperature drop we had here and snow. Replaced it with a vibrant line (much better)
Drove her to and from work, last tank I got 405 miles lololol

Looking good Marc, when is that beech gettin some window tint? also could you please post a video of inside the car of you stomping the gas, get the cluster in the vid.

[4g63lover]

Looks good my man! Whoa whoa whoa! You're getting 405 to the tank on a boosted SOHC 4g64????? That's fucking awesome!!!

Thanks man! I'm planning the tint as soon as it decides not to be an ice box around here haha. That video is a good idea.

Thanks bro! Haha yeah I'm getting hella good highway mileage as long as I keep my foot out of it. Imagine if I was 5 spd omg.

[4g63lover]

That's astonishing. I got 290 at most with babyg. Lol

[Ivory8g]

Jeez! Really? She must be rich as hell. I think worst I got was 230 when it was just boosted and not tuned

[4g63lover]

It's more because of my driving style I think. And I mostly did city driving at the time. I went to go visit my siblings in school 3 hours away and I got like 330 to the tank. But there were a few 80-120 pulls on the highway. Haha.

[Ivory8g]

Haha yeah I am pretty docile driving around and am doing a combo of city/highway. Mostly highway though that's why. With a few low gear pulls of course.

I hope I don't jinx by asking this, but how is the auto holding. I had to rebuild mine shortly after taking ownership..I didn't even have a maf adapter+filter yet iirc lol. But then again I wasnt given any records of prior tranny maintenance.

[Ivory8g]

Haha! It will eventually get swapped!

It holds really well. A lot of people ask me about it. The killer would be torque. I tune my cars to have smooth onset of torque and hold flat. Not a giant spike and taper. That is what breaks stuff. That way I can stomp the gas and get a nice surge. The car accelerates like a big motor car not the typical turbo car ^_^

Yeah! Heat, torque, and poor maintenance kills autos. If you keep the trans oil temp in range, change the fluids like you suppose to, and maintain a proper torque curve, these trannies can take SOME abuse.

[Ivory8g]

Bingo!

[Galantman03]

but thats like no fun! What about burning tires at 70mph!? lol

[mysticj]

but thats like no fun! What about burning tires at 70mph!? lol

That's can happen with an auto...but you might end up breaking something.

But come on! Constant ETs, NLTS, no missed shifts, no clutches to swap out(sort of)

[Ivory8g]

Lets not forget the non exist ant boost drop on shifts. I drop 2 psi mid shift lmao. And I have wheel spin when boost hits at low speeds. I was amazed the drivetrain loss didn't completely eliminate that

[mysticj]

Usually there a difference in WHP between autos and manuals but torque remains, the most part, about the same between the two as the torque converter...converting torque from the engine to get the vehicle moving. That's what robs WHP, the torque converter but it can gain some of it back by using a smaller diameter and/or lighter weight converter.

But your car behaves like its positive displacement charged!

[Ivory8g]

Yep I had thoughts of going to a lighter converter when I had her open bit I said eff it haha. Honestly this car is as fast/faster than Ivory boosted and manual tranny. I'm quite pleased

[keith6110]

Don't talk down to Ivory like that!!! =P

[Ivory8g]

Haha! Oh I'm not. Ivory was a beast! I've just gotten better at modding/tuning. Makes me freak out cause Ivory would be retarded fast by now

[keith6110]

Haha, I wish I knew what I was doing for tuning =/ ivory would be so fast, you're right. I sure do miss her looks with the new style jdm skirts.

[Ivory8g]

Tuning is a pain in the ass at first till you get the hang of it. Once passed the learning curve it's fun shifting your power and where you want it and getting your car to do certain things. And I miss her ass too :( it's ok tumbler will get there eventually

[unclepaulie]

build the auto. few vr4's drivers have had success with that. makes for a very quick car


and get some 245/40/17 semi slicks and gloss black *insert your fav wheel* asap!

[Ivory8g]

I'm gonna go with the plan I had for ivory. The looker set of 18" wheels. Then a track setup that's 17".

[Ivory8g]

Lolol hit a bump and my speedo stopped working. I think the vss kicked the bucket. Gotta pull one from the yard. However this is after I got home from work.

That is at 360 miles for this tank so far. I will hit 400 again. My lean burn tune works nicely. Afr's are at 15.1 at idle and cruise.

What's a VSS??

[Galantman03]

vehicle speed sensor. I think or maybe its virtual. since hes auto, probably vehicle speed sensor.

[Ivory8g]

Yeah pretty sure it's the actual mechanical sensor that goes in the tranny

[Galantman03]

Probably, my 03 was ghey and had the input and output vss


Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk

[oakrdrs187]

They all have the input output. The way it was explained to me is Input measures torque converter rpm (input shaft) and output measures the output shaft speed (to diff) and the bigger one on the diff measures vehicle speed for you to see on the dash. Input/output are for pcm shift points and whatnot.

Yeah thank goodness I searched for an 00/01 this time

[Ivory8g]

So final verdict. 34.09 mpg highway! Did 450 miles and it was a hair above the E. 460 the light came on. ^_^

[Galantman03]

Next, coast into the gas station! I mean come on! You know how much gas is in tank at E, like 2 gallons. Seriously though, thats awesome

Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk

[Ivory8g]

Haha I pushed it 30 more miles to the gas station after the 450 and was in utter disbelief haha. Honesty I could have done 500 miles. Yeah I always remember on ivory doing the pump and the rail and waiting till the light came on the change it all out and dropped a brick when I saw how much gas was in the tank still haha. Think they were thinking really old people who don't pay attention to gauges would drive these cars haha

[foxbrand]

that is just awesome

[Ivory8g]

I'm in love all over again with my G haha. Half tank for $22 and last me 225+ miles lol

[mrg7243]

I miss mine. The s4 gets 18 here in town. $75 to fill up once a week.

[Ivory8g]

Haha sounds like the modded Lexus sc 400 I had. Sold that and got the tumbler

[Ivory8g]

Got an unexpected 2 days off from work so decided to paint her.

This stuff from harbor freight is the shiet! I will use this stuff from now on. Goes on 100x smoother than what I was buying before and it's a fraction of the cost.

Sanded her down then washed her off. And made 2 passes.

I painted the bumper clips on the side for a little more stealth. Totally noticeable. Also she's a lot darker black now instead of the grey it would shift to in the right light.

More caped crusading <3

There is also a good bit of texture. More like a lattice instead of just a sandpaper feel. I like it!

[djhah]

You need to sell me a tune for my daily, that will in return = gas savings to me which paid for tune =)

Do you offer classes? xD

Wires look thin, possible reason behind flicker.

And a while back a tire blew on my 17's. Winter sucks! So now she's on stockers. For real getting 18's now.

[IVORY_G]

;(

[wetamup2k3g]

When injectors go, do they just quit or do they lean you out before they go? Hoping it's the former.

[Galantman03]

It depends. injectors always have power, all the ecu does is apply the ground via a transistor. But an injector is a solenoid, so 50/50 i guess unless it gets stuck.

[oakrdrs187]

They can also dump way too much fuel causing flooded cylinder.

this is exactly what happened. im sure, had a misfire, wouldnt pass above 2k rpm all of a sudden, and was rich as efffff. Then wouldnt hold idle unless throttle was wide open then wont turn on at all. an injector/injectors definitely quit lol. already have another set ordered though. and the wheels ill see to soon :P after that its off to the dyno again to tune.
