What's wrong now? No SCT yet? If no, I'd call them up and ask them if it's okay to fire up with the stock tune. If they say no, tell them that you wish you had the tune so you can!

It's official!
I'm now a believer in the Mothers Billet Polish!! 
This was the 'finisher' polish I was saving til the end just to spiff it up. Instead, it layed down a mirror like finish!
Before (Chris' reflection)
Comparison between the Mag & Aluminum Polish and the Billet Metal Polish
Final buff (yeah, that's my work PC
)

George WTF !!! I hate when a vendor does that. Have they even shipped it yet ? It'd be somewhat OK if you knew up front but this is what 2 weeks now of nothing. 
Let's just say I reached the point of no return now.
Wheels....
Since I haven't gotten a for sure if a 275/40 would be big enough I decided to go staggered, not my first choice though. 18x9 up front 18x10 in back. I love the look of the bullitt and the FR500 tire and if I had the money the CS67 wheel.
Everywhere I looked a chrome Torq Thrust is about 300 bucks for the rear and over 200 in the front. The anthracite is quite a bit less and I do like that look.
or
Or the chrome ones.

Brian, are you looking at the Anthacite Bulitts?
With 18x10's you can run some good size meats back there.

That's the plan. I'm sticking with 285/40 for right now because it's the closest to the original
diameter of the stock tire. Should be pretty good size-wise
Again, great info. Plan on doing some shopping this weekend to nail a few things down

Dude, call and complain. It's your God given American right. 
Very true. We used to be special, but when Luis got his, it was all over.
285's are some decent meats. I like the staggered look, so I'm a supporter of that move.

I think I'll pass though as I'm not a fan of waking up at 5 in the morning.

I did it during my Union negotiated break. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. 
99% have aftermarket wheels?? 
Oh yeah.. I forgot you were too cold to get out from my car at the Sunset meeting place and just watched the Simpsons on the Alpine.
C'mon Leo.. like you got better things to that morning.

brian - discount tire they're 5 minutes from my house and have always been great. Always hook it up and stand by their work/products.
now you have me thinking of the chrome shelby torque thrusts. So hard to choose
