Trust me, I have class, I have the Cabrio Fender on the Driverside. Excuse the pic, its the middle of winter over here and this is all I could get with my new camera before she undergoes surgery.



As for what the car runs, its got 13psi pulley on it w/ 9.5 compression head gasket and JE Forged Pistons running est 330hp at the wheels if the ignition system could prevent the misfires.

As for the KOMPRESSOR Emblem...Here it is before the removed GLX Spoiler

330 at the wheels would be crazee!!

I plan to upgrade turbo, IC, injectors, etc, with my planned hp to be 250 at the wheels, I don't think I could figure out how to lay any more power down without doin the 4motion swap!

I just peed in my pants...

330 at the wheels?? With a 9.5:1 CR?? Ugh.. I hate you. What kind of torque do you generate with your charger? And let me extend continued compliments to your ride, psi glx.

Crap I screwed that up...
330 at the crank, 285 at the wheels, Torque is 275 at the crank. Car needs a Quaiffe BAD!!! But the next mods are the Exterior to be cleaned up and new alloys, if I can find a dealer to import Brock B1's from the UK for me unless you know where to get these or even something that looks the same?

Oh yeah, 285, now that's a slouch of a car . 275 lb-ft. at the crank is also very impressive. What's the peak torque rpm?

Don't know about the Brock B1's. Do you know the name of this German manufacturer that makes this simply awesome set of seven-spokers? Their name starts with an R.. I'd recognize it if I saw it. Anyway, these are some beauties that I suppose I might consider getting for my Acura some day.

The RH Cups come in 18" Otherwise I can't think of any right now but there are some similar rims out there

I was going to get some 16" CR7 deep dish mesh wheels imported, but I might be waiting a little longer than I thought, there's other stuff I'd like to get

Man, I'm puttin out a hundred less hp than you and I have and love my quaife I could see traction being a bummer!

I've also been fighting off getting an LSD, but my traction problems are getting to be pretty irritating. I will see how my traction is once I get my suspension in (the delivery is way behind, as it's coming all the way from Cali, and apparently the power outages there have wreaked some major havoc on most businesses out there- -understandably). I will have a 1.3" drop with tighter springs, so that should at least help keep my wheels more firmly planted.

But if it's not enough and I get an LSD, the Quaife is the way to go!
