Very aggressive tune. at the moment i'm only getting 18 mpg highway 13 town. Drilled/slotted rotors. soon to be SPEC stage 2+ clutch with aluminum pressure plate.

and further down the road when I can afford it. Cam with so far unknown duration(haven't made up my mind yet) and about .580/.582 lift. and dart high flow heads.

Figured I'd let you know that you can't just pick the lift and then pick the duration. The lift goes hand in hand with the lobe profile itself. If you wanted in the low .580s of lift, then on an XE-R grind, you would be in the 220-224@.050 range.

Nice car BTW.

Yeah I know. I just threw out some numbers on the lift I'm not sure what I want but I know i want over .580. I'll choose duration from there.

Well I had nitto drag radials on my car for about a month and I could roast them from a stop in third gear. Now I have the F1's and from a stop can only bark them in third. So traction off the line seems better and it doesn't kick the *** end as bad between shifts now.
