I am sorry bud... didnt really wanna... but the sticker shock from a well known speed shop to upgrade to an F1R really upset me.

but the day after I was approached for a build... something i could NOT turn down. But you are right.... you can really stick it to me for switching... by taking me for a ride when the F2 is ready

Well the volume of air can't compare to the larger head units that's true. I'm told we would have maxed out at around 7k/rpm and realistically, unless you're planning on becoming a drag race champion I don't see why anyone would need more than 1100hp. at the crank. We're very pleased with the results.

How do you get 315s on stock rims?

Let me know when you decide what you're going to run at the track. I'm in the process of thinking about track wheels and tires.

they fit with no issues. They buldge just a little bit... but not anything to be worried about... i have ran them at 18psi at the track too with no issue.

i want to buy Robert's forgestars.... someone convince him to sell them to me.
