Silencer_0's Vortech build
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?

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!
