446HP 22psi, 93 oct.

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh....php?p=6057472

looks like 400hp is a piece of cake with bolt ons now that the red is here.

yeah, periphery 2. I am pretty sure you already have it turned off, stock is EFDF and off is EDDF. I am going to turn it off tomorrow and go get the car inspected to see if it passes.

i think it should show up as not available, and i don't think any states require EGR to pass yet. do you use ScanTech? i use that to check if the readiness tests pass.

I agree, no car is required to have EGR so it should be fine i just want proof. I need an inspection this month anyway so it isnt a huge deal. I have a new map i want to load up anyway.

also nsxerz... why are you buying Z1s?!!! you'd never notice the difference between them and a way cheaper tire, and the Z1s are going to wear out quick. *shrugs*

i know i could have gone with a slightly cheaper tire that has waaay longer treadlife and that the difference would probably be minimal for the street (i.e. those DZ101s that Timz posted)... but i really wanted to go with a pretty aggressive summer tire. plus they really weren't that expensive. its really just the treadlife that makes them cost more...

if you compare them to the stock advans... they are 1/3 the price... will last slightly longer and should perform better! too me thats a huge win. the only thing i think the advans have on these tires is that the sidewall might be slightly stiffer and the advans weigh a little less.

honestly they are azenis, but better

EDIT: i paid 133 a tire thats azeni money!
EDIT EDIT: plus i saved $$$ on the brake pads by buying them!

Yeah. I was REALLY leaning towards the Bridgestone RE01-Rs... and they are 199 a tire!

So you can imagine how happy I was when I found these Dunlops (which Tirerack says are better than the RE01-R's!) for $66 less a tire! I got the Dunlops and pads shipped for less than just the Bridgestones cost!!!

EDIT: Dextrous-maximus... what are u doing laterz? You want hang out? Oh crap I gotta go buy oil filters today!!! haha just remembered!

EDIT EDIT: Did you feel any difference with the K&N back in? There is a HUGE difference on my car... If you wanna do something later... we should grab a beer! Its been forever since I've gotten a beer on a Thurs night. I think Brad will be around so he might be down too.

Bill- A guy I work with, his friends cousins, uncles ex-wife's former roommate has a Galant Ralli-Art (VIN#4A3AB76T77E055337) wants to know if the small emblem on the front grille is available seperately, or if it part of the whole grille. Its the RalliArt logo that is more so on the drivers side, orange/red insignia thing-a-ma-jig. Let me know price & availabilty pleeze
