Great write up and thanks for being so thorough... I will definitely advise my customers on how to get their Turbos up to snuff!

Love the car and the mods -- excellent write up.

I have bascially all of that stuff on my car and can attest to the improved feel (RSS hardware, sway bars, motons, etc)

Love seeing the car at ORP!

PJ,

Thanks for chiming in. I actually drive most of the time on the streets so I wanted a setup that's optimized for street conditions. I spoke with Mike from RSS who referred me to their technician. We both determined that the GT3RS specs fits my driving style the best. Maybe in the future, I'll try to dial in some more negative camber.

Also, I heard you got a new toy? Did I hear that right..a Cup car?!?

Very good!
What about the costs? How much you paid for all these mods about suspensions?
Thanks for sharing. I won't do the mods on my TT convertible, it doesn't match with cruising top-down
