most of us are in D-street so we are stuck to stock width and -1" from stock diameter

I think Intercooler throw you out of ST. In SP as long as you don't need to modify anything to allow the intercooler to be installed it should be ok.

As far as wheels goes there are essentially nothing that limits you to run whatever in SP. You can also cut fenders to fit. Remember though this is a class designed to run Hoosiers./R-Comps.

yep, the STclassing is all Fked right now.

STH you CAN change the intercooler but not in STU...

plus if the DP it catless yeah that takes you out of stu as well
Catless downpipe might be fine, with some caveats:

E. Any catalytic converters are allowed. Catalytic converters must attach
within 6” (152.4 mm) of the original unit. Multiple catalytic converters
may be replaced by a single unit. The inlet of the single replacement
converter may be located no further downstream than 6” (152.4 mm)
along the piping flow path from the original exit of the final OE converter.
Since this is a DD/toy rather than an all out autocross build, sounds like OP would best fit in a local "TSM / Street Tire Street Mod" type class if that's offered by the local club.

It is catless and i do daily it. I'm not trying to go crazy with the wheel size but looking for something close to factory specs in 19in or 18in so i can have more tire then the stock 20in
