How is the stroker running?
Where do you feel the most power increase? My brothers seemed to have more 3-5k jump over a stock 2.5. Topend seemed about the same though
The stroker is running good, still haven't coughed up the money
for engine management but I did pick up a 525dme, some have had good results with it over the 173dme, I feel the power difference over stock
down low, my car feels much quicker than when it was stock.
Imo if you shadowline, everything should be shadowlined. I know I keep saying this but I like amber turns and US trim.
You already addressed it, but all I'd do is euro bumper trim and clear signal lenses. Whatever...car looks great man. Expand on the painters work on the taillights. Did he just spray clear over your Testors rattle can red?
I painted just the amber section of my rears with ruby metalflake, or whatever its called, about a year ago and I don't like how it's become so dull.
your car was actually one of the inspirations of me going with 16x9s. really wanted cr7s too but i cant know that i may pass you on the road one day and see the same wheels on the same bodied car. looks great as always.

p.s. i dont think 225s would work with the stock fenders even rolled. my fronts are way close with my stretched arches.
The painter simply clear coated over the candy apple
red paint that I sprayed on. So many people are doing euro trim/smoked turns that my US trim and ambers are becoming rare
Nando, don't hesitate to adjust those levels, this is how Ritz
Camera developed my film.
Bobby, I didn't think the 225's would fit under my arches either without pulling them out.

A local friend is about to put megasquirt on his 3.0 m20 after a new mechanic at his shop offered to set it up for him. Deleting the AFM and all the goods should allow for good power I would think, especially on a car with the proper cam, plenty of fuel and open exhaust. I hope it goes well for you, a dual-pattern cam or 288 might be just what you need
