Low boost on 93, Mid boost on 100-104, high boost on C16. I'll determine boost levels I'm comfortable with after I get it.

Since you have all the power you need in this car, perhaps you may want to invest in a nice suspension upgrade!
Thanks, bro...I'm looking forward finding out what the fuss is all-about.

Suspension may be down the road, for sure!

Thanks, bro. It was difficult, sometimes unbearable!

Congrats on being back stateside as well!

Edwin - thanks. It's good to be home!

Dez - Thanks! I'm thinking the GT2 will be noticeably quicker, but we'll see.

Just so know...I had a really hard time deciding between this and a GT-R.

**Just kidding**

( no offense, Peter

Congrats Scott! You got yourself a real beast there!

I need to hurry up so I can keep up with the Divexxtreme's! It's going to be a battle for the stock bottom end records, but I think you have the advantage due to weight
