I would love to see a 5 inch dp on a 240. Theres absolutely no way. You have to clearance the steering shaft/rack to even remotely make a full 4inch fit. And even then steering is limited among other things Those 740’s aren’t going to be enough either dude, your gonna need 1000cc’s to really get that turbo in its efficiency range. Engine management is another big thing, your not going to be able to really use all that turbo without a power fc, aem ems or something comparable. I think you better take a step back and think this over again, or maybe go with something like a 2871r before you make the huge jump to a 35r. Otherwise your walking the wrong way down the road. Call hybrid dynamics they’ll get you turned around ---

5 inch is over kill 3" is more than suitable. anything bigger is really not doing anything. especially on a sr20 ---

A drag only car would be the only car I would do this to. ---

Same goes with the 740’s your going to be well over 80% DC at half the 35’s effeciancy… not safe… I suggest doing some serious research before jumping into something like this. ---
