You really do speak the truth. This extra power has made me see just how wobbly the suspension is. Mid corner I can feel the car bounce a little bit and roll just a bit too much. I am still trying to make moves on headers and MILVs, but unless I find some deals on those I'm more inclined to add coilovers.

And I agree, I can't imagine this car without my short shifter, CDV delete, clutch stop, weighted knob and new motor/m3 trans mounts. It's C R I S P. I think I might do the spring delete today.

Was it you that pioneered front brake ducts on our bumpers? If so please link some info on it!!
