Looks like a semi fast course. I like that.

Hope to make it out next time! Anyone have the dates for the next one?

I suggest getting your SCCA membership then and also running within class.

Its an OEM turbo, but it's not stock on your car.

Honestly theres no need for coils. Look how fast Huck is and he is on stock struts with Swift springs.

I'd highly recommend getting used to the car and then as you get better start upgrading stuff. I wish I would have started autocrossing before my STI was all crazy modded.

You can run T2-SM which will keep you away from the big boys with slicks and all the mods you can imagine.
