245/45-17 should work fine...

245s for stock rolling diameter should be .43... so 40 or 45 would work

Here's what ive been looking at 22x11.5x3.5" Bar & Plate Core, 1127cfm-750hp at 80% efficiency (Direct Replacement - Requires Minor Trimming on EVO 8), Pressure checked at 35PSI. It's the 3.5" ETS FMIC.

Here's the 3" ETS FMIC 22x11.5x3.0" Bar & Plate Core, 1058cfm-700hp at 79% efficiency (Direct Replacement - Requires Minor Trimming on EVO 8)

So who's going to the meet on thursday? I wouldnt mind going if I knew a few other people that went. Kenny, if you and Tim meet up at your house and I end up going, would you mind if I just follow you guys there? I think you live right down the street from me lol.

Hey Ajay and Tony and whoever else would like to join in lol, In a few weeks I'll be ordering my EPM 02 dump and a FMIC not sure which one yet lol and I was wondering, are you guys down to help me install them? We can order some food and drinks and just do an install day on a saturday or whatever is best for you guys. I'll probably start breaking some stuff down the day before. No JDM rear this year lol unless I sell my Ralliart lip which I don't think I will lol.

yea, that's odd, my 3.5" didnt require trimming at all, just the bottom undertray a bit, but not because it was wider

Requires trimming on an 8 because the end tanks are wider but the core itself is smaller for the Evo 9. The 3" costs $500 and the 3.5" costs $600 but I'm gonna have it anodized black so it costs $100 more. I think I'm gonna go with the 3.5" just incase I upgrade the turbo unless after seeing that, you think the 3" seems good enough for an FP Red.
