No not always an ******* just usually, sorry just not my cup of tea. Guess it was pretty rude, my apologies. I'm shutting up now.

I don't expect everyone to like the flames, but I will say I'm not done with the appearance mods yet. In person they match the dark gray wheels quite well, and I have yet to be able to take pictures in good light (ie not at 1pm on a sunny day). I have a similar set for the hood that I'm going to try next week. If they look bad, I'll just remove them, but I think it'll be ok. I have a CDC chin and GT500 spoiler in the mail, so the car won't be looking so stock either and I think they might look a little more in place then.

I've got the 3.31s in there for now. I nearly went to 4.10s last month, but decided I should wait until the supercharger was on and see how the car is. I'm going to be tapped out for a little while in terms of the modding budget, so I won't be able to replace the tires real soon. My stockers only have 650 miles on them anyway, so might as well burn em up. This is a standard Vortech kit, so I expect it to put down around 400ish to the rear wheels, give or take...

It should make around 8 lbs of peak boost at WOT. Brenspeed claims 150rwhp with this kit, but I'm pretty sure that is a cool day with fans blowing into the engine bay glory #. I am expecting somewhere between 380-420rwhp. Just a guess though, I'll have dyno sheets next week.
