You're not pulling the turbo, right?

nah, not now anyway....i gave away a lot of the stock parts so i'd have to buy or trade stuff...my exhaust is a;; custom as well...i think i'd miss the extra zoom zoom when i need it!
How do you like them so far? I really want some side visors and almost pulled the trigger on some AVS brand ones from Autozone for $50. My buddy has them on his Mazda3 and he likes them and they look great on the car and are a dark tint. However, they are attached with 3M tape. The WeatherTech brand doesn't use tape but only come lightly tinted but looks much smoother than the AVS.

have u driven my car before? didnt think so
everytime i go to a shop to get my car aligned all they end up doing is hooking up the sensors to my wheels, turning the computer on and everything is in the green
so they dont touch ANYTHING, trust me, ive watched several shops do it
plus the sensors **** up my rims so i think ill save my money and my rims
once you go past a certain point in drop, i dont think they can align your car accurately anymore
as long as im getting even tire wear im good
I think there pretty cool. Yeah they install in the window channel. On the box it says they come in lightly tinted and dark. I put 3m cf vinyl on mine so it didn't really matter on the tint. Installation was a snap.

i need to do some serious replacement of my ball joints and steering tie rods, those s**** are WAAAyyyy past due lol
im going to try that thing where you point the dot to the inside to get more camber tomm. (if you know what im talking about)
i rub on the front in some corners so hopefully that'll help a bit

so... im confused.... why is it with a FMIC i get fuel cut on 6 psi?
just curiosity, does anyone know if there is a bolt in 6-speed transmission for the P5?
If not, then has anyone ever gone from a 50/16 tire up to a 60/16 tire, and did this make a difference in your RPM's on the highway? ie: were they higher then usual, or lower then usual, and by roughly how much?
i'm just trying to find a way to bring my RPM down on the highway, if i could do that my mileage would be amazing right now it is 12.6km/l i'm not sure if this is good or not for this car, but compared to what i was driving it is a nice change, i don't hear the fill me i'm low alarm going off every time i drive by a gas station
