I honestly don't now what the offset is on my wheels...lol, I do know I have 20mm spacer in front and 15mm in the back. As far as the turbo, it's just a location we've been using on a few 350's so we tried it on a 370 w/ a little different turbo manifold design. It also helps to keep heat out of the engine bay. Thanks for the compliments!

I like it! Less movement w/ the gearbox, shifts feel better. I havn't had any issues like the forum member had w/ the engine mounts. Also added an extension to my shifter shaft so I can get my hands back on the wheel ASAP, traction is a bitch! Never miss a shift either

Default Wire/Vacum lines tuck

Started tucking the headlight wire looms, starter cable, throttle body cables and grounding wires on and around the engine and bay area. I got the passenger side done by running most the wires through the fender w/ out having to lengthen or modify them. Next I'll tackle the driver side and get that ugly fuse box re-wired up into the brake booster compartment. Waiting on a few parts to finish my vacuum lines, Ron found an awesome CNC vacuum manifold kit and linked it on Phunks TT thread. Great find!!! I'll be moving all vacuum lines and manifold pressure sensor behind the fire wall where the wiper blade motor is located via the stock grommets from the headlight wire looms. Waiting on hood lifts, dress up bolts, rear fog light mod and my AEM meth kit, everything should be done before dyno day on the 28th. I attached a few pics of the before and after passenger side and some of the brackets and plumbing removed.

Put my lil bro out in the cold and shot a few clips.

This clip is a take off, @ the 8-9 second mark I make small fire out my rear end!



This clip is coming back



This is inside the car, prob reved it up to 6k, nothing too crazy. I have pretty stiff suspension and camera isn't that great but you get an idea.

Default Update 01-10-12

We did the oil pressure sensor today and the water/meth install. The install wasn't bad at all, I attached a few pics of the set-up. Going in Friday for a retune and new numbers @ 10 psi.
