Wow, that looks great. I may have to pull the trigger on those, and maybe get a tint too!

Any reason for the spacers? Would this fit without spacers on the OEM Pirelli PZero Nero 235/50/18s?

I added the spacers to bring them out a little more flush with the body. They are not necessary. I am running 235/50/18 pZero.
The tint is 25% front 20% back.
Thanks!

Chris,

I see you have an Airaid CAI and the BBK TB. I have the Airaid, but haven't installed it yet. I was kicking around getting the TB since the intake will be off. The consensus seems to be it isn't needed and a Bama tech told me to save my money since the tune will take care of the throttle. What are your thoughts? Was it difficult to get the intake on the TB? I have read that it is super tight. Thanks.

Hey cdiaz,
The bbk 73mm throttle body was put on after my exhaust setup was complete. I noticed a slightly deeper sound at idle, a slight increase in lo-end torque, and a louder grunt. It enabled me to break the tires loose so there has to be an increase in power also, but the car just screams, so it is hard to tell without numbers.
I have heard of members stating that no gains are noticeable, this could be due to the mods applied.
The fit was not an issue for me. I installed with a cold motor and used a flat tool to fit the intake pipe over the TB. I would imagine if the engine was warm it would let the rubber fitting expand easier for the install.

I don't if you would consider the Niche wheels gunmetal.

The other day, I tried some on my stang. Definitely would need bigger tires to fill the wheel well.
