I'm still running those Dorman studs on the rear of my car with 1/2" spacers and base C6 wheels. Done two HPDE events with it and at least 20k street miles. I think they're good.

The turbos definitely quiet the exhaust down. I am running Billy Boat PRTs with my TTi twins and it's barely louder than stock. Maybe too quiet for some, but I think it sounds great and I wouldn't...

T4L, I had the same issue you're describing with my turbo build, so I don't think it's related to the supercharger. 30 MPH in 3rd gear, less than 10% throttle were the conditions I found it happened...

I looked at it and it seems the truck starter isn't so much smaller that it makes a difference. The width and proximity to the turbo is what's getting me, length is not. The truck starter DOES have a...
