haha thank you very much. i thought so too and more exclusive because it is a little more expensive than others i know...however this is one of the stronger wheels out there on the market since they are forged wheels. plus i thought i paid a pretty decent price with for the entire package since i didnt have to pay retail which i never would have.

they probably are several pounds lighter than stock, depending on tire choice he could have more traction assuming he also went wider than stock.....which everyone does.

your also comparing aspect ratio with a runflat to a non runflat........I could run painted on rubber and probably have a softer sidewall than the runflats

Bavarian, yes Dinan is slower, not sure how we are still arguing that.

Hell Clem ran 12.3 @ 116mph on Procede V2 only on General Exclaims. What are we still arguing about?

I've come to the conclusion there are vast amount of people in denial about these cars with aspects of tuning/modification/etc

I know a bunch of guys tune only (Jb3 actually) in the 12's. 110+ trap

very true

Id love to know what everyone in that monster thread recently who was defending the JB4 for not having cps ability is now saying that Terry released the cps module.........but but but but bullshit.

I think Advan RZ-DF's are the lightest 19" wheels.

19 pounds for a 19x10 wheel.

Ehh Im currently in an argument and being told a stock LS1 can beat a Tune Only n54..

And that a Tune Only N54 is usualy a 13 second car

We don't know what tires he has, what size etc. I am sure he is using a 30 aspect ratio or a 35 while will change the gear ratio also. Not sure what the stockers weigh which someone will chime in. Keep in mind a wider but shorter contact patch will not provide the same straightline grip as a narrower but longer contact patch. I pull mid to low 1.8 sec 60 ft times with rfts so i don't feel they are that bad.

well both numbers are great but im not that concerned with that. mine are light enough and as long as they arent heavier than stock im fine...plus im getting 19" and mine look better than those advans (at least classier looking and not so much ricey lookin)

cleex024 · 03-17-2011, 04:11 PM

whoops...i meant to post my above comment to the guy with the advans.

chillmeow · 03-17-2011, 04:23 PM

Hi,

I am deciding whether to get Cobb or not as well. Does anyone know or notice the fuel efficiency change when we apply Procede/JB4/Cobb? I'm talking about a single mod with the stock car.

Thanks!

a FBO and METH'd 335 will run mid 11's

have you seen what an FBO LS1 does !?!?

i live in redneck heaven Houston. 4th biggest city in the nation with the widest and longest streets imaginable.

there are 10 second street cars everywhere you look - at any meet- at any beach cruise.

i've seen my fair share of blistering LS1's since 2001.

cleex024 · 03-17-2011, 05:45 PM

man...i really wanna get dps and fmic damnit. so does the dps make the sound of the exhaust any different...i am really satisfied with the stock exhaust sound right now because its not too loud yet loud enough.

Litos · 03-17-2011, 05:51 PM

an exhaust will in fact change the sound.

you have to be kidding me with that question though.

you ever modded a car before !?!?

no the question is are YOU kidding me?? i said dps=downpipes not the whole exhaust.

My question is will the DOWNPIPES make a different sound in the exhaust?

cleex024 · 03-17-2011, 07:42 PM

so anyone wanna comment on if the downpipes make the exhaust sound any different?
