Very nice, perhaps you and sab's can con, ORX626 into making a custom metal TB inlet, stopping the OEM one blowing up and off like a balloon under boost. ORX626 custom metal work looks real nice.

At least I drive my SE!

Triangles are gone!
Running BFG 215/40/17 now - very good.
The 215/45 did scuff on the front left on harsh dips.

hahaha biatch :oops:

So the 215/45/17 would pass for track use only?

Yep - ok on the road - i removed the plastic guard liner on the passenger side.
That stopped most of the rubbing.
Just gives a wake up when it does rub on a hard turn/bump. Bit annoying but no harm.
