As far as that intercooler goes, I simply cannot say clearly enough how much of an improvement we get over previous coolers we have run.

which cooler is that to save me pages of searching

Bushur Race FMIC. We've also had tremendous results on air temps. I think it's been proven time and time again to be the one with the best results.

I hate to ask as it's probably been covered.... but is there any type of upgrade option in the works for FP Green folks? If all else fails I'll sell the green and order the red

He's waiting for a driveshaft (or part for one) from DSS.

Just came in from changing wheels/tires. Installed the adapter and driveshaft. Then my daughter came home with a nail in her sidewall and was going to be leaving town, so I had to stop and fix her up. Tomorrow, I'll be changing the tune and adding the TC fluid, since I lost some during the driveshaft change. Earlier, I added the JDM rear bumper and added a switch for the water pump. Getting closer. We'll be leaving Thursday to begin the trip to Norwalk. First, we'll stop off in Indianapolis and 'check in' with Indy on some stuff. Look forward to getting to the track and meeting everyone.

12 lbs. I weighed them on some digital bathroom scales. The stocker was 37.6, the DSS was 25.6 if I recall. I just remember the difference was definitely 12 lbs though.

FED EX delivered another set of tires today too. I decided to get a set of slicks, just in case....

12lbs of rotating mass is substantial...I'll get around to it eventually.

which slicks did you end up with. I'm thinking about doing the small brake setup and run some 15" QTP's or something else.

I got the Hoosiers, same size as the QTP's we've been running. Even though the size is the same, the slicks are about 3/4 -1 inch wider. The slicks also weigh about a pound more.

def keep us posted on how the slicks work out...the QTP look like they're pretty much a slick, does the surface feel any different to the touch? or is it more about the sidewall?
