Keep up the good work! If you ever need a second set of hands I have family in your area and could stop by to help out.

These systems look great! Would love to extend the Alpha variable exhaust out the back. But, I would pancake the pipe rather quickly.

Wowzers!!

Is that true? Something I read said that can be totally opposite. Black and white or red and white.
Cam,
Now for residential wiring Black is hot, white is neutral, and green (bare copper) is ground. For low voltage systems generally red is positive voltage and black is ground. Now for automobiles and complex systems throw that whole idea out the window. If you look through the harness in your Slingshot you will see dozens of colored wires. Best bet is to get the user's manual. There are full schematics that show what each color wire is. Unless you are good with a Multi-meter this will be a life saver.

Extra weight? The compressor? Air Tank?
Compressor, air tank, and quad valve. The air tank is a custom made unit made out of aluminum. So, not a ton of weight. The compressor and valves weigh the most and are at the very tip of the tail. There is actually a lot of open space under the fin.

@WraithSS, can you show a picture of your wheels and tires, especially the rear (from the side and from the rear). Sorry if I'm asking too much.
@WraithSS, can you show a picture of your wheels and tires, especially the rear (from the side and from the rear). Sorry if I'm asking too much.
Let me see if I can find one from the rear...Please forgive the falling side wall letters. Was just test fitting them.

If you can teach a total electrical noob like me you can teach anyone.
Sounds like a challenge...LOL.
We need to get @TheRock on this as well. We both have the same disease of not letting anyone touch our Slingshots. It's called Touchnibreakdigits

Rab's thread is a little daunting for the beginner. I would say basic basic basic
You got it brother. I'll get started on that here and finish when I get back and can add pictures.
If anyone else has any DIYs or wants to make one please add it and maybe we can convince Rabtech in to making them a sticky?

someone needs to get Heather (HRMiracle) to move the cracked headlight DIY over here
Messaged her to see if she will join over here or if we can use her DIY.

How about led lighting install? Maybe a halo install. I know several people have asked about swapping to hid or led headlights.
I would say CAI install, regular oil change, right angle drive oil removal and filling.
Here's a big one! Belt tensioning.
This is perfect Cam! Now for the lighting additions are you looking for a DIY following the instructions provided with the equipment or a more waterproof installation? Rabtech's LED install is a wealth of information as well. -

There are a lot of 20/22 packages, but I like the big look of 22's up front..
Was working with Roaring Toys on my 20/22 package until they informed of the brand/style of tires. Reviews for Delente on passenger cars are OK, but on performance vehicles they are bad.
I found the rims they were selling elsewhere and searched for tires that fit better and were a performance type. Had a local shop mount and balance them. Cost me only $110 dollars more than what RR was asking, but I got Pirelli P Zero GT tires in 275/30/20 fronts and a 315/25/22 rear. -
Here comes Keith @slingmods and Noel @Noel Hughes to take more of our money!

Post up if there is a particular DIY you need and I'm sure someone here has a wealth of knowledge in the installation process.
Working on the following DIYs: Double DIN splash-guard, Custom front grill, Air Suspension, Big Brake kit w/dual rear calipers
