No fun if it's not a surprise! Things are going well. One more trip to the body shop to fix a panel they messed up, but other than that, the car is coming together! Hope we make it! (Like we have a choice!)

Hey Chris,
I'll be staying at the Sunset Station and at the show my car will be at the Hitachi Automotive Products booth. I will probably camp out by my car a lot of the time to see what the general reaction is. Hopfully positive. We just made one big compromise today which is unfortunate, yet beneficial for saving time. We decided to go to the show non-intercooled, but once the show is over, the piping is getting redone and we will be intercooled for better performance. ProCharger wants it to look as clean as possible so we decided to leave off all the extra piping that the intercooler needs and we will rig it up before we hit the dyno and track after SEMA. It'll be about a 40% hp increase with the intercooler, so you can bet I won't leave it off!
Definitely looking forward to hearing people's thoughts on the car as well as meeting a lot of fellow members!

Doing 18x8 in front and 18x10 in rear. Running Nitto 555 RII's, at least planning to, or 555 street tires. The wheels will be Billet Specialties and of my own design. Tires will be 305/35 18s 245/40s.

tires
Have you already put the wheels on? And if so what are your backspacings. Reason being is , I wanted to run the 305/35 but didn't know if I had the room. Did you have to modify anything?

The lips are trimmed quite a bit in the rear. I ran a 295 with no problem at all and with a bigger rim, I know the 305 will fit. Backspacing is 4.5 front and 5" rear. The wheels are being cut next week and should be here the following week. I will let you know how they fit.
