How was your traction when you had OEM 19's on? I was hoping to keep my rays on when I install my vortech but want to stay safe. Did you break loose at all when you were cruising and then decided to stomp on it?

Sorry I forgot to respond to this. I had my 20's back on before I installed the vortech. I chirp the tires when I shift, but nothing major. I don't think the vortech makes enough torque for you to break loose while cruising, even on 19's.

Update:
Been making a few changes to my setup.

- Koyo radiator and Mishimoto fan shroud are now installed. With the trans fluid running directly though my tranny cooler instead of running through the stock hot radiator, I'm seeing a constant 5-10 degree drop on my tranny temp gauge.

- Routed the vortech filter to the bottom of the fender behind my tranny cooler using a 4"-3.5" 90* reducer coupler, 45* 4" pipe, and a 4" K&N filter.

- 5/8" K&N breather filter for the crankcase.

- 4" wider, 2" taller FMIC. I'll be attempting to install it this weekend.

- 2.87 pulley and shorter belt to be installed after the FMIC.

- UpRev upgraded MAF to be installed at Church's prior to retuning.

Hoping to schedule the retune by next Saturday. I'll update with pics soon.

Edit: Pics!

Like I've said before, stop modding! Let me catch up.

Can't wait to see the newly refined beast in a week...or two? April 12th.
