Yup, with the new manifold I'm going to try to fit in a 4" downpipe... Which is significantly larger than the 2" dp it has now.. It's crazy how 1 of the 2 parts I didn't change or check is probably the reason I'm not making power..
I got the rims and drag radials off of some guy with a 9 second mustang.. The tires only have around 50% life left but I only paid $300 for everything.. Considering the total for the rims and tires new would be around $950 (not including shipped or taxes), I think I got a pretty good deal... They are Mickey Tompson ET Street Radials 275/60/15 and 15x8 with a 5.5 backspace Billet Specialties Street Lite rims.. I'm going to go a size smaller and get 275/50/15 eventually.
I got my wastegate in for the new manifold.. Precision 46mm from real street performance...
