Check This One
Just browsing and ran across this. Someone may have posted it previously, but if they did, I missed it. Wonder how he gets 265HP out of it???? Is it real or photoshopped?

Good thing it has that monsterous wing on it, these svxs are so light they just get airbourne so easily without proper downforce

Makes me want to find the person who put that wing on and punch him in the butt.

I think they did this:
http://www.turbonator.com/index.html?id=adWordsSVX It's on the same site and says "add 35HP to your SVX". Yeah... right.... Get right on ordering a couple of dozen as backups.... The wing jokes -> holding down the featherweight SVX and adding 35HP, both had me rolling!!!

 That's just plain stupidity right there. Wing doesn't even mesh with the design of our cars in any way. Wheels don't look too shabby though...  And the 265hp claim? I'd love to see some dyno plots or 1/4 mile slips. Heck, I'd be happy with a pic of his engine bay. -Chike

Tacky And Dishonest
A extremely low mileage (less than 20,000 mi if memory serves) red LSI went for about $15k on e-bay not too long ago. This car, I suspect, has been in the hands of a not very discriminate owner. And unless there's a real supercharger on the engine the HP figure is obvious BS.
As for the price, in the words of H.L. Mencken, "Nobody ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public." WGJ

No clearance issues at all and the offset is just 5mm less than stock at +50mm. They are 16x8" and I'm running Dunlop SP Sport 8000 tires in the stock 225/50 size. I've taken these wheels on and off of my car at least three times (paint calipers, etc), and upon close inspection of each tire and my wheel housings I've found no evidence of rubbing...     -Chike
