whats the prob? boost gauges are pretty straight forward

what are you tee'ing off of?

where are you getting your power and is it fused?

that should be the only issues

So, I got my beat working today after alot of bullshit, and alot of wiring and some wasted time, it hits A LOT harder than I was expecting/wanting, but I'll live

The bullshit LOC/RTO I bought burned out after like 20 minutes, Something fried, it was working fine and then it went out, so I pulled the ground off for it and it turned back on, so after alot of exparimentation I concluded that the remote turn on side of it was offically burned out, the LOC side still works fine strangely, but it still means I paid 40 bucks for something that couldhave cost me 20, oh well

I ended up using the 12v acc in the center console, it worked out great

Still need to clean up the wires and find a way to secure the box more, but its more or less done

Yeah the local heathens in their primered (fill in the blank) will try to get your attention by circling around with their weaksauce and do one wheel burnouts. Don't let it bother you. One day they will all crash into each other in the parking lot and catch on fire.

They're clean, but im not sure how well they go with the 8, maybe if they had a lip that were offset from front to back

It almost looks like an evo or something

hmm...maybe if they had more gloss to match your paint, I have to see them in person, that driveway pic looks good, they look a bit glossy

but anyways, how do they feel? thats the most important part

Really EVO? That's different... The color is Hyper Black, a dark chrome color. It feel like it has a little more pep. They weigh 19.4 lbs. But with the new rubbers, it sooo much fun to drive again... Now I have to get that stupid front sway in and I might get the RB springs and run them on the stock shocks.

No offense, no worries. You have to see it, the rims flushes with the fenders perfectly. I don't like the lip rims. I wanted something that looks high end and not to ricey.
