if your spring is rather stiff, just cut a coil or 5 off until it specs out rather good.

Do you even have room for a radiator in there? When I test fit the ching-chong-meow-mani + Holset on my STD the turbine housing was 2" away from my Del Slo radiator and aimed directly at it.

I got a civic half rad in there, its mounted by its hoses about 1/4" from the downpipe. I learned at about 10 am that night that a teg rad cap doesn't fit a civic rad.. hence the beautiful orange duct tape, there was no ------ way we weren't taking that thing for a ripper.

Other than that there seems to be all kinds of room. I didn't really need to rip out ps, but yuriy talked me into it and started ripping. We managed to fit a full 3" dp without removing a single mount or brace, and it tucks up without hanging down in the dirt. I'll take some better pics of it once my lift frees up.

When will you learn Firefox > IE JD? :P

BTW Tim I was thinking about this... the next flashlight drags. They say you need a license to drive but I wonder if they actually check that? If not (or if you have one laying around) we could always do this: have me drive to the drags, you race, me drive back. It'd work perfect.
