I think I might be finished for now. I am waiting on my calipers. What color should I go with? Red? Black???? Thanks

Nice! I'm just getting started. No mods, yet but I'm going to start with a Heritage Grill and the SOLO pipes.

whipple's are around 7,500 I believe (OP please correct me if I'm wrong) then what he puts out depends on his other mods and what boost he is running at.

Good work, lookin great! I say keep it in the family, and go black on your calipers. I don't see any red highlights anywhere else...

Bear2SS · 08-25-2011, 05:33 PM

love your car. Gloss black calipers would look best imo.

HDRDTD · 08-25-2011, 08:20 PM

The calipers on a 2SS/RS should already be black. Mine are.

J HO · 08-25-2011, 08:23 PM

What exhaust did you go with?

They aren't gloss black like the OP probably is thinking about. I think they are more of a flat dark blue gray color. Not attractive at all.

Painted/powder coated calipers are a MUST on these cars. I would suggest red since you couldn't see black that good.

Are we ever finished?

j/k!

Seriously, that's one bad (I mean good) looking ride!!

Thanks for all the compliments! Sorry it took me awhile to reply-I got stuck in the hurricane trying to get home.

My car pulled about 336hp (RWH) prior to the maggie. After, I now have 460hp with about 445 torque. So I increased the hp by 130 and the torque increase by about 100. I am very happy with these numbers. Of course, I want more but I think this is a good start.

I can't decide between black/red on the calipers. I think red would show better but black would also look good.

Thanks again
