Choose one, if you really want the other color after, buy some plastidip cans off dipyourcar website (they have both bronze and gun metal and a **** ton of other colors)
It's a win win

Lmfao thats has to be a joke^, bronze matches the interior, plus i feel like you'll pop out a little more.

I know I'm in the minority but I like chrome when done tastefully.

has he changed wheels since? Wheels are totally subjective and up only to the discretion of the owner.

Okay guys so I have read through about 20 or so pages or this thread but haven't exactly got the answers I am looking for. Mostly just everyone's opinion. I have an 04 coupe with HKS catback true dual, kinetix resonated test pipes, jwt pop charger, stillen z-tube, throttle body spacer and port & polished intake manifold. I do not yet have the money for F/I but do have money for other modifications. I am wondering what else is there to do for my car for the best gains? The next thing I was looking at was the plenum spacer but I have not decided on size. I read a forum where these guys made a larger manifold on their own and the car with just that alone was pushing 318rwhp so I'm guessing the 1/2 inch based off of that? I would greatly appreciate any help.

While they had the car on the dyno they would lift the upper plenum and it shot up to 330 or so because of the massive amount of air. So they used the concept and built a HUGE manifold. I'll look for the page again and post it.

There have been a couple that bust 300, but that's very rare and extremely costly, so even if they had 315, it wouldn't be due to just a skunk spacer. That big plenum thing is garbage, man. Just go FI if you want the power.

EDIT: I just followed the other link and this guy is turbo'd with cams, headers, etc. So you have to take that into account. He's still only gaining about 15hp at peak and you wouldn't see anywhere near that NA. Its nothing to concern yourself with.
