Looks like the cars getting some lighter seats...The Sparcos are nice, but real pigs
Lighter wheels and some r compound tires..back to 17" inchers.
Maybe even a off road race exhuast for the high hp maps.

So does this mean that you turning your car into a trailer queen??? That would be a shame, but with an off-road race exhaust you will attract a LOT of unwanted police attention.

You mean like a straight through 3-3.5" exhaust? I thought this was what most of us are already running around the street lol

Yes.

I'm currently running a Borla Hush, nice exhuast around town..but i'm sure bolting up a Burns or Magnaflow slincer would help at the 30-35+PSI boost levels.

Just something for the racetrack.

A exhuast that would bolt up easy and ligthen up the car aswell.

Looks like the rims are a go.

17 inch Volks CE28s with some 255 Toyo RA1s.
