I have been hearing if people trying to set one up for the longest time but I haven't seen it happen yet. I'm down for one of those.I know there is a mini meet with a bunch of other crews at this place on clairemont Mesa blvd by lolitas taco shop. Place was packed and the kal bi q truck was even out there. Sd should do a little mini meet though.

Agreed.

FYI Fit4Kim is on Air thats why he tucks so well. I say its the 215s that are causing all your problems. Offset is fine. Pull and roll like your doing, but 205 would work as is.

Looking real nice now though (aside from pipes), but they are different sooo props for that

The front fenders are rubbing right? Adjust the chamber or add a chamber kit if you don't have one.

I want to take a dump in that exhaust next time I'm in San Diego.

Do you have any sound clips? I am curious to be honest.

Needs more turbo. I'll sell you some of my stuff so you do it properly. None of this goofy MAF/Injector matching stuff.

*Hint Hint*

I've gone a different route anyways..

I believe these are every Wednesday nights? I've been to one and they all had VWs and BMWs. Sick cars nonetheless
