I like. Yeah I'll probably stick with 16's. No need for big wheels, especially since I plan on bringing my car to the track a lot....weight reduction =P lol

I have no problem in my car in the snow lower. I drove though the 8" that blew back onto the roads yesterday without too much issue.

Do you really get on here just to watch her posts?

Anyways Emily I have been wondering where does the SAI tube go on the intake? Cause I didn't see it in any of the pics. Been curious since I have SAI as well.

The SAI connects to the end of the intake near the filter on the bottom where you cant see it. The K&N kit comes with an extension that replaces the plastic on the SAI.

The kit also comes with a plug in case you dont have SAI.

nothing else of value goes on here so... yea


best track in NJ is Atco raceway. Cheapest price and a lot less busy than E-town.
unless atco has raised their prices... e-town charges $30 for 3 runs only.
atco was less than $20 and you get unlimited runs.. if its a slow day, you can easily go home with 10 time slips or more.

Wow thats some good stuff right there. Ive always wanted to hit up Atco but the ride is just waaaay to long. Island dragway is like that on some nights, i remember getting 20 something runs in one Wednesday night. it was pretty sick for $15. Maybe one weekend when they open we could all meet up there or something, go both days.
