Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Yeah but bolting a 6-71 blower to an engine worth about 1/10th of the price of the blower.. Is so roadkill

got the wheels on the car :D 

 

edit:

I love that they fit and don't rub... but thats pretty much it.. when I walk outside and see the car I'm like "oh... that right, I have those wheels now"  where as when I had the advans, it was "damn those look sick!"...

 

added another pic at the bottom that I like, 17x9.5 but I'm not sure if they work with a track alignment without rubbing like my 17x10's did
