I think star spec run a little small and I don't want it to be stretched. Forgot about Johnny's tires, the KDW tires I picked up for $208 each. That was in my budget for the other goodies I'm picking up!

I hear ya on the budget, but you'd be surprised what a good vs ok vs bad tire will do to a sports car, especially on a heavier car like a X. Ask around next time, you'd be surprised on what other tires you can get and wont break the bank.

Is it fixed btw? I was going to stop by and see but I had to run down to Henderson and didnt have time.
She is ready to go back together on Monday. Hopefully we can hit the dyno by week's end and spray on it. Hoping for 950awhp on the 100 shot.

So I turned my boost controller all the way down and the waste gate seems to be holding fine. Gave it a few turns and low boost holds fine. Maybe I need a stiffer spring?
