yea you need to have a photo gallery. Go to the photo gallery button at the top of the page. then to members gallery's. In there it should have a button at the top right of the box that says "add photo's". If you dont have it let me know. And that sucks about the tires. Im pretty sure if i roll mine i wont getting rubbing anymore. I hope anyway. What shocks do you have and what springs?

Yea, no luck with the gallery creation. Hook a brother up.

And yea, I rolled them as much as possible the first day I put the wheels on. I have Koni Yellows and Eibach Sportlines. Teins this winter.

For those asking for my engine pics, here's the next best thing... specs:

Big EVO3 16G turbo with 34mm flapper (it's seen 30psi rofl), APEXi front mount intercooler with all hard APEXi piping, SAFCII fuel controller, B;itz Turbo Timer, HKS carbon-ti exhaust with HAHN racecraft 3-inch 02 eliminator downpipe, Southbend ceramic/ceramic clutch 8lb Fidanza flywheel.

650cc FIC fuel injectors, 255lph fuel pump

koni yellow adjustible shocks with eibach sportline springs, strut tower bar, 19" Ace Spyder wheels with iRotors and steel brake lines

Yea, it's nothing special now but you just wait!

yea definetly.

30psi on a 16g. I understand the wastegate can take it but not so sure about the turbo. Sounds like a good setup though. My guess is it should be good for mid to low 12's.

People have run the EVO8 16Gs to 28 PSI and it wont hold they say by redline it tapers back to like 23 and the turbo doesnt live that long taking on that abuse

Hah, guys guys... When I said seen 30psi, that's exactly what I meant. I have a manual boost controller. I screwed it all the way in for max boost and took off slow. I barely made it 30ft because it spooled so fast to 30psi I freaked and stopped. I put the old boost controller back at it's safe 17psi setting and that's where it will stay until I get a larger turbo. I would never actually try to run that much boost and of course you're right, Emonz. The 16g could never hold that kind of boost for more than a split second. It went to 30 (because that's the max the gauge reads and then dove. No idea where it would have stayed because I immediately stopped the car and changed the boost setting.

thats funny. You could probably run more boost than 17 on the mods you have. Do you have a wideband or an EGT guage?
