Good call on the bumber support. I'm so mad I didn't do mine before it cracked off. Original bumper cover with 7800 miles on it.

What tire is on it now?

We had a great time... we got to make some shake down runs with the new turbo and really learned a lot.

We will be making some changes before Atlanta so that we can spool faster. Weather was great, people around us were cool, all in all we had fun!

Is a shoot of nitrous an option for helping the turbo to spool faster?

I am running the 325 M/T's I got an exception for them since they are smaller than the 315's

No, I can only use 1 power adder and even though it is for spool it would be considered 2 power adders.

Got ya. The 315's are nice I think you will like them, they should help out the 60's. The only thing is they are a TIGHT fit!
