glad you liked it....well what can i say.......my car has been transformed!!!! the car deifinitly feels morw planted on the road!! so little body roll!
now you understand why I've been repating it over and over.....a good set-up makes the car faster than any other "power" mod...
that's the big mistake many will do....shelling out top money for the turbo w/out first checking out a modded n/a......
I keep my Spax dampers all but one click closed.

I'm going for the best of both worlds, shelling out for the turbo and then modding it. To paraphrase the Evo article, you can have your cake and eat it
