Re: first turbo project
they came on my rims when i got the car but the rims were the ugly stock silver so i took them off like a year and a half ago and then i had like 5 diff. sets of rims and the i ost my job and got another set of steelies and i painted them black. then i found these found the lips and thought they would look good. they are just little beauty lips or rimgs, ive found some on ebay for like 25$.

I'm loving the steelies with the snapon ring!
Yeah, avoid running the car with no fuel management. Do you still have the 450's? If so when you get you ECU chipped, get a basemap for the 450's on there and plug all that ---- in and your good to go. Some fine tuning may be required for you ECU, but you'll be a a lot better off with 450's ECU and base map vs FMU, or nothing.
