F8L GT Posted March 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 Did a little more suspension adjusting. I like the way the tires now fit the wheel well also decided to go ahead with the flaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solar Posted March 25, 2013 Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) waaaaaah flaps? They are actually pretty cool! Also, good job on the adjustment. It looks really nice in there. Edited March 25, 2013 by Solar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F8L GT Posted March 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2013 With how wide the tires are they will do their job. I was unsure until I mocked one up with the tire on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solar Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 I think the flaps says "This is how wide tires should be." And then your tires say "bitch please!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F8L GT Posted March 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2013 So, I guess I can spread the news here. I have been contacted by Ortiz Performance. Luis has come up with different spec cams than what's offered today. We are going to be testing stage 1s and stage 2s in my car. Getting dyno numbers and track numbers. I can not give and details about the specs but stay tuned for numbers and results. You can follow the progress on FB also by following my page (SMS Performance) or Luis page (Ortiz Performance & Tuning Shop). This is a great opportunity and I'm glad I can be a part of it. I have no doubts that F8L will be running 11's N/A. On top of this, I have a friend off another forum that is selling me a full Cold Fusion nitrous kit with all kind of goodies for dirt cheap. I guess maybe next I should be looking into a roll bar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F8L GT Posted April 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 I am back to running an alt. I use to just run a battery at the track so my switch would only shut off at the track.
