    Yeah that should help, I am going to install some adjustable rear conical control arms, maybe a panhard, and some other stuff on the rear suspension along with some 3.73s. I am also going to get some 17x10.5 and 17x8 Stealth black FR500s too and wrap them in some wide sticky tires. Hopefully it will pull some good track times after that. I have a feeling this blower is going to force me to upgrade alot of things so I can properly utilize the power level its at now, ie trans, rear axles, clutch, sub frame connectors, ect. Luckily parts for our cars are fairly in-expensive and I have all winter to get this stuff installed. First and foremost I need a hood!!

    I would'nt know, I had it tuned on last Saturday, got it back at around 5pm. Drove it home, gave my gf a ride in it and then parked it for the night. The next morning I had to leave really early to go the airport, I am in California right now for BMW school and won't be back till this Saturday.... I wish I had more time to play with it before I had to leave but haven't driven it but twice since it was tuned. So yeah its killing me to not be able to drive it but I will be driving it this weekend, probably order a hood for it next week too once I decide what brand and style I should go with.
