just have some supports welded in so you minimize the cracking/sagging.

I thought the only cracking was due to water hitting it. I have a friend in GA that has had his for over a year with no problems. I'll have the stuff welded on though.

anyone interested in a set of 17x8.5 enkei rpf1's in silver? i've had them on for a little under a year. they are in absolutely flawless condition, no nick, curbs or rash. they weigh only 14.7 lbs. these wheels are probably why my stock clutch has lasted so long. im asking $165 a wheel for these. comes with locks and a key. pm me with offers.

Was your best time with the green installed or stock turbo?

The GSC S1's are awesome but don't forget to look at the 280+ Comp Cams. You do not need valve springs and retainers for those cams and they produce great numbers. Well worth the money. Well I'm going to Fallon this weekend hopefully to break into the elevens. I did it in SAC, now for Fallon. Anyone else going?

I'll hopefully have my GSC S1's in 2 weeks. I'll post a good review of them soon.
