oh, i was gonna say "thats a new one" :)

I think putting the coilies in made mine hit, Imma have to check and see, but its hard to get under there without it on stands, so itll be a pain Im sure. Gotta take care of the suspension issues soon.

on the SR i ran 10 on the RB i am running 8 for now cuz the side mount cant hold more pressure for some reason

till i get a front mount i am planning on running some major boost maybe 20+

Did you put a 91 bumper cover on your car. It looks like an 89-90 at the top and a 91-93 on bottom
