Keep an eye on the cutout, they tend to leak over time. But its a great bang for your buck performance wise. :thumbup:

So this was my first time installing front brakes. It wasn't a bad install. I definitely felt that taking everything apart was a lot easier than installing everything back together. My dad helped me out a little bit as well. Brakes are no longer grinding. Rotors were kinda rusty but I'm making due. WIll replace sometime this year.

So little bit of a update.

I've been to the track twice this month. I ran five 13.7's in a row. I honestly think I can get a 13.5 or 13.6 with the perfect run in its current condition. It'd prob be even easier if I turned up the boost slightly but I do not really want to do so without a wideband. The stock tune on a SRT4 runs slightly on the rich side so I'd prob be good but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

I've also decided that since my ACR is my daily driver I'm going to put it back to stock besides its drop and rims. I have even messed with the idea of taking my stripes off but they shall stay for now. I took out the cold air intake a couple months ago. This and the granatelli wires were uninstalled. tomorrow I am taking off the MSD Ignition coil and also the mesh grill in the front of my car. Prob will sell some of the stuff too.
