Installed a stud conversion. 78mm long to fit a 20mm spacer. 14x1.5 into the hub and converts to 12x1.5 towards the wheels to run tuner lugs since they are mostly all that size. I also use the same lugs for my cone and ball seat wheels by using a special washer that converts cone to ball.

Reason for all this is for track wheels. Going to be tracking a lot this year and swapping wheels with bolts and spacers isn't fun. Plus the tuner lugs look great IMO.

Also got my track wheels ready. Re71r 235/45/17 mounted to 17inch Enkei Konigs.

Installed a few new parts over the last few days.

-Maxton rear diffuser.
-Bms intake
-Bms turbo inlet pipe
-Bms turbo muffler delete

Car sounds amazing now. Love the swoosh noises. Performance wise I don't know. Car feels like it spools a little faster and smoother but it's probably just a placebo effect.

I'm planning on installing some 4 inch black tips to flow with the rear diffuser a little more.

Love that diffuser! Have you seen the awe exhaust with diamond black tips? I know it's a lot more money than just tips, but sounds amazing also.

I have. I feel if I'm going to get a cat back I'll do a custom made one. There is a great fab shop in my city that does amazing work. A cat back for me isn't on the top of the list though because it doesn't affect much performance gains and I like the sound of my car currently.

Very easy and it started to peel on its own which is why I took it off. Looked good but I would not use it again.

Got a better picture of the new intake.

Really enjoying it. Hard to tell or feel the performance gains which I'm sure there is but it's just minimal. More of an addition to support the tune and is38.

It sounds great too. There is a sound clip in my latest YouTube video.

BMS intake looks good! Hearing the CAI go "pshhh" is pretty satisfying imo, haha. Once you get the IC in, holy moly, your car is going to pull even more buses.

I know its really testing my patience as I sit here and wait for it to ship. I really wanted the IE intercooler though so its going to be worth it. Once its in I am headed to the dyno to see what I am putting down.

Wanna take a guess? I say on the GIAC 100 Oct race file around 380?

With the JB4 stacked? Hey man, I believe! Definitely would talk with George and make sure everything is ironed out before you dyno it.
