Yes , and maybe a dummy muffler on the other side . I don't know if you know hguzman with the 6th gen accord j32a2 swap but he ran that setup and it sounded amazing .

Nahh not yet . My boy is building a 2.7 twin turbo engine in his audi b5 s4 and I've been watching and learning before I dive into it myself. I am not all too sure what exactly I wanna do yet . I don't have lots of funds either sooo I'm kinda doing smaller things for now . I need custom headers and lightweight pulleys before I start the engine . Not sure if the bottle of nos should be before or after the start either . We will see. It'll happen .

Could also just cut the bumper off higher up and make a rear diffuser that lines up to the cutoff. Hmm now you have me thinking.

I'm wrapping my Type-S Waffles in Yokohama S-Drives 235/40/17 's here this week . Hope it comes out good .

Duwayne , Eh . That's not really my oem cup of tea . Maybe a Borla or something ? I like the grumble of these Tsudos .

Ron - Morgans measurements are
OEM Wheel - 387mm (15.25")
RSX/S2k/EP3 Wheel - 362mm (14.25")
They kinda cover the rpm needle but I ride with the seat down low and I'm 5'7" tall and I put the tilt as low as possible . I was concerned at first but now I'd never go back to the CL trucker wheel .
Rich - Yup yup thanks !
Pete- Thanks man , hey what can I say your has been well done ! Come to Vegas in about a year when I'm 21 and it'll be built and we can go hit up the strip .
Duwayne - It's all for looks , and I have the comptech ice box intake . I plan on doing something similar to a whale penis intake eventually .

$250 .
So , in an unfortunate turn of events ...
Blew apart both axels at the track last Friday getting wheel hop .
Cracked my rear bumper pushing the car into my driveway after it got off the tow truck .
Replaced axles and now the driver side is too short .
Broke sway bar end links , purchased moogs .
I'm gonna try and replace more bushing while I'm down there to stiffen up the ride and try to eliminate wheel hop .
