    The car is running -3 degrees in the rear and -2.75 in the front...
    The camber kit will allow me to add a little more negative camber to get the wheels in some...I said I was not going to run crazy camber like -7 or -8 degrees to slam the car

    Your Neogens will do just fine with a boosted automatic. The automatic, however, will not. I think it's been proven 200whp will kill a D series auto right away.

    Indeed. I love my NeoGens. Not the grippy-est tire, but so far are wearing like iron.

    You want life out of your tires, but I can already see where your cut springs are causing the fenders to slice into the tread of your tires?

    Something doesn't add up..

    Why see what happens? You know what happens. It blows up.

    I would understand if you had a motor/tranny that no one has done the set up with, but come on. If it's been done, learn from their mistakes.

    Because I have seen zero proof of anyone running the auto tranny with power... It's words and to me words aren't crap... Yes I know the tranny is going to blow, I'm not denying that but I'm gonna see how it holds up

    car is obd2a and from all my research because of the automatic its a money pit to swap to obd1.... i would have to change to obd1 trans and trans module then get the jumper harness for automatic to manual conversion or swap the whole harness... i got the emange for stupid cheap and it will allow me to stay obd2 run a stock ex computer and be able to tune... if anyone has any other ways that does not cost buckets of money then please fill me in!

    I give your props for doing a 4 door but you should really save your money and do things the right way.

    Cut springs, eBay turbo, poor choice in engine management, weak transmission. Better to leave your car stock and get good parts instead of cheeping out. That just my opinion though, my car is stock suspension and I would love a drop but I'm saving for coilovers. There is no way I would put lowering springs on stock shocks much less cut my springs.

    Well if you read the thread it's just to get by... I know plenty of people running eBay turbos with no issues and make great power... If you don't like the engine management then you tell me what you suggest because I clearly stated I will take all knowledge offered... As for the trans it's an experiment not doing something wrong in my opinion... Last man this is a budget car with spare money that I have and scrounge up, I don't see a point in saving for months on end just to get name brand when I could get stuff that works great and gets me enjoying my project sooner... Just my opinion

    I have no personal experience with ebay turbos, I went straight to Turbonetics. From what I hear though, they tend to develop shaft play much sooner than name brand turbos.

    As far as Emanage vs Emanage Ultimate, You have more options and the ability to fine tune more with Ultimate. It is just a better all around setup. Kinda like going from S100 to S300. Again, selling my entire setup for $300. Includes all harnesses.

    There is no right and wrong... Opinions are welcome... Just because I want to see what the automatic tranny can hold does not mean it's wrong, just not what YOU would do... As for the engine management every wants to say wrong but I see no one offering up answers to if I can run s300 on a stock computer and stay obd2

    You would need to convert to obd1 for the s300. I'm sure you won't though since you want to build a cheap race car. And there is a right and wrong way to do things. With the way you are doing things now you are going to spend more than you already have just to replace the poor quality products you have purchased. All I'm saying is that you are wasting the hell out of your money just to be different.

    My "b" shouldn't have said "right". I wanted to compliment on what you did "quality-ily", ...almost positive that's not a word, but you get the point "
