Hope your first day is as memorable.
Great story.

IXO,

You will need to retune after the 24/18's...think long and hard about your eventual goals, be patient and do everything at once.

A great set up is something like Paulie or Todd has. After that it starts to get real expensive.

24/18's are great. I couldn't be happier with mine. The car finally feels the way it should.

Where is it coming from? How did you handle the PPI? Did you fly or had somebody do it for you?
