    All of you who run Nitto's on a DD....

    I'm running the Nitto 555 Extremes and have about 4000 miles on them. I was actually just checking them today and they show no wear as of yet. I'm more of a road racer, but with the P1SC it has seen its' share of break lose acceleration runs. No track visits. I really wasn't worried about rain...

    Smog in Cali

    You are mistaken. The rolling 30 year rule that exempted older cars was recinded by our state a couple of years ago. I believe it is 1975 (maybe 1974)vehicles and older that are exempt. One of the reasons the law was recinded, was that 1975 was the first year for catalytic converters in the...

    Smog in Cali

    Test only cars are usually gross polluters or over 15 years old. Test only stations cannot repair or diagnose your car. They simply report to the state. Additionally, they are not allowed to pre test your vehicle and the cost is higher. Those cars on the test only list are cars that have been...

    Smog in Cali

    You should be up for a smog test in 09. UDPs won't effect your at the pipe reading and most inspecters would never spot the pullies, but don't polish them all up just before the test. lol

    Stock Catback

    I thought V6s had a Y-pipe for a midpipe. At least my Daughter's 00 V6 Mustang does.

    Smog in Cali

    That's why I went with a P1SC-2 Procharger unit that is ARB approved. I didn't want the hassle of trying to get it passed smog. The ARB tag is plastered right on it. Even the guy at our station won't fudge, and I'm his boss. The consequences for getting caught are a lot steeper than a few years...

    sheet metal intake

    Because blowers rob horsepower from the motor to function. You take 60 hp from the motor to get 385 hp. If you didn't have to rob the 60 hp, you'd really have 445 hp. Thus the reason a lot of people prefer turbos. I'll stick with my P1SC and the 60 hp loss at this point.

    Smog in Cali

    It is every 2 years. If you are the original owner of a car you bought brand new, then you won't be tested for the first 6 years and then every 2 years after that. If there is an ownership change within the first 6 years, then that car must be tested every 3 years. After that, every 2 years...

    Happened to me, but it was after I installed a 2 stage chip during my P1SC install.

    Maximum Motorsports clutch cable firewall adjuster?

    I installed the MM type on my car as well. Nice piece, but I have developed this annoying little squeek when pressing the clutch pedal. I'm not sure what's causing it, but I'll have to dig deeper and find out.

    I bought a set of 18x9 1/2 Konigs with Nito 555s mounted and balanced to my door $1250 from American Tire.

    what do you think of this combo?

    +1 I went with the Eibach matching swaybar kit, front & rear. Supposedly they are designed to go with their springs. I like how the car handles. I just wasn't sure if there was a better swaybar alternative. Usually these sorts of same brand packages are already scienced out for you.

    p/s lines with intercooler

    Yea it probably would have been easier if I had removed my bumper. I installed mine with the bumper still in place. Just the same, you're installing a different cooler than the ATI 3 row I installed.
