Looks good. Tried out the Toyo RR's last weekend and they worked pretty good. I was running 315/705-19 pirelli's the day before and the toyo's were 1.5 seconds faster. Pirellis were take offs, but the toyos had a lot more grip, they were brand new which could be why, but not as wide, and the 350 defiantly was more happy with the shorter tire.
 
Welp, my GT500 has a newer PCM than anything out there i guess and HP tuners hasnt supported it so no tune until they come up with this. Hopefully they find a solution soon. Also toyo 888r’s put on back then being put away for winter

pulley, billet whipple tensioner and idler completed……not for some cat delete pipe porn….they had to make these custom because no one sells them……they cost me an arm and leg but @Fabman will appreciate them…..

id1300 injectors
division x fuel railers
whipple tensioner
spe idler puller
spe 2.7 pulley
one ethanol r117 e85
palm beach dyno tune
Cftp front springs to lower it a lil

902rwhp….im not touching it from here. Car feels great. I had nothing but torque sensor codes causing the trans to not shift with a different tuner (it took hp tuners 2minths to break the new august 2021 pcm).

also added cf side skirts, extensions, rear diffuser, mud flaps, hood vent and front splitter. Finally got 325/30/20 toyo r888r’s. I’ll post pix tomorrow as its cloudy as hell here

We are going to have similar cars. PBD is local to me and mine is down there getting the full X900-S3 kit.

Did you buy these wheels and tires from them? They told me they were working on getting a Weld/MT set up worked out to be cheaper than the Forgelines. Any rubbing?
 
Alright, i tried selling this car, was getting low ball offers so now its put back to stock except a 2.9 pulley, Whipple intercooler, cortex uppers.

im planning on making this a grid life track mod car because i want to compete

Gosh, Tony, I never made fun of you and I think you're a swell guy and a really fast driver. PS - can TMS and I stay at your house, eat your food and drink your beer the next time we both go to Autobahn?

i have a very small house but you 2 are always welcome at autobahn. My treat.

..............well with all those great cars I hope you spent your money , instead, on a huge garage, ha! No worries, I was completely joking about staying at your house, we just wanted to eat your food and drink your beer, but forget all that , an invite to Autobahn will be just fine!
