Nice lookin wheels - should look awesome when they're on. Are all blowers for 05+ like that? Seems odd they wouldn't line up the pulley to work with the stock set-up.

No that's the Magnusson blower set-up - the only one to run the pulleys like that

dang that is one nice Bullitt - still looks plain and stealth but with FI punch and a wider footprint.

Veeery nice

I wonder if the Roush or FRPP blower will clear the STB? Nice car overall!

Safely and correctly? 255's are as wide as I'd go. Guys have gone 275, but that's pushing it to the limit.

I believe it fits if the strut tower brace is modified (grinded) on the bottom part.

Hmmm. Don't know if I'd want to do that or not, but it (supercharger) would sure "wake up" the car.

Nice look, you gave me a thought to change directions of my B. I'm curious who did the widening?

That is f'n sweet for sure. Perfect Wheel for that car. What's that cool looking fender emblem all about?

It isn't an emblem......it's actually a side repeater (or indicator as we say over here)

I really like the way the blower and tires were added while keeping stock appearance. Even the stock intake filter element was kept. Very nice.
