Felt sad initially watching the video but happy to see you have such a positive attitude after a traumatic experience. That alone should be a testament to life for the rest of us. Thanks for all of your transparency providing info for these cars and look forward to you putting down faster times...
They also keep the same offset. Yes more aggressive offset looks better but also increases torque steer. There's 18" wheels with near stock offset but unaware of any 19" offerings other than factory forged.
With the traction issues you'd likely have better luck with 60-130 especially since that seems to be the standard among car guys. Have you tested that metric stock or since the turbo upgrade?
This is the second thread I've seen asking about Houston shops with no recommendations which is a shame as I'm in Houston too. I'm not on FB but you may have better luck there.
I saw on their FK8 intake it mentions knocking off a second on 60-130. Wonder the validity and if similar results are expected on FL5/DE5. Effective intakes don't always show much on a dyno versus actual driving. This was true on two of my past vehicles.
It doesn't have a 10% power increase at 3500 RPM like all the marketing suggests?!
Sucks to hear it's not plug and play especially for the price. I'm used to aftermarket intake manifolds on LS which were easy to swap.
I don't know if Sal's Auto Sport does parts installs but I think they do. That would be my choice since they do alignments too. They aligned my '17 ZL1 with all aftermarket suspension bits and had every kind of car you can imagine being worked on. They are pricey but he offers a cash discount...
