looks better with stock bbs's IMO, it looks sick in the 3rd pic
nice looking evo

Looks good and the exhaust note is just perfect.

thanks. yeah the previous owner didnt have stock wheels so the 19s came with the car. those were one of the first things to go.

are the 9 turbo and fmic the only plans for this car? looks good man

eventually a jdm rear and jdm 9 tails. also looking into a cf do-luck trunk. my trunk has a bunch of scratches from a debadge the previous owner did, hence the sticker on the back. i would also like to get my roof either repainted or wrapped. when i got the car, it came with a faded cf vg, which flew off on the freeway. it pulled a bunch of paint chips off, cant really notice it unless up close and most is covered by the new vg anyways.

as far as power wise, so far the 9 turbo and fmic are the only other plans. thinking of porting the exhaust mani and hotside, then a retune of and may do a e85 tune as well. goals were around 350whp on pump or run a low 12/high 11.

9 turbo and IC are a must! =) don't worry about cosmetics right now. Get it up to where your happy then worry about looks =)

Always happy to see another 2004 WW SSL! Great looking car

Looks great!

wish i could do both at the same time :(

Hell yea! That would be dopee! =)

Lovin the ww/ssl combo. Hope I can find one this clean!

Looks good man!

I think that's a fantastic plan! 350 is a great goal and fairly conservative too!!

Looks SOOO much better than when you got it. I say swap the tails and keep the spoiler!! :)
