there not slicks. there street tires. or drag radials i think.



i also plan on cutting out the rear to mount the fuel cell almost flush. just about 2 inches coming out. plus the flat metal would look much cleaner. plus i plan on cutting the floors out ( there slightly rusted) and replacing them. so most likely they'll be flat steel also. i dont know of anyone who makes floor pans...



plus, im not scraping out that gunk ever again. i did it once to my old FC....NEVER AGAIN!!!



this is my when im bored, budget, do what you can project. i havnt spent over 1000. including cost of car. not bad i say for the parts she has on her...
I say U run the car the way it is for ***** an giggles. U live close to orlando speed world right?

hell yeah im going to run it like that...just to see what she runs.



im like 20 minutes from Orlando speed world. your close to here???



i have to figure out whats wrong with the holley first...the damn secondarys are leaking!!! even with that, the idle is pretty stable and revs pretty clean. but obviously breaks up cause of all the extra fuel at idle from the damn secondarys...



anyone know why the holley would so this???

think i fixed that problem. just lowered the float level a bit. i see no leaking now...



and i put on my new home made exhaust. sounds like a 10 second beast! no muffler right now, or any silencers. the RB true dual header connects to a true dual exhaust and collects near the rear end into a 3 inch pipe. im going to put a muffler, but i dont know wich one yet...



kinda drove her too! out the garage and down the drive way. rev'ed a few good times then back in the garage...lol. she moves!!!



i'll post some pics of the exhaust soon...

With my next car we're going to find out what a S4 13b sounds like with a carbon D+D sport bike muffler on it...



Maybe it'll just blow a hole in the carbon and sound like **** anyway...
