      Damn good info in here guys, keep it up.

      I would ask about cams but that's way down the road. Like after the warranty is out down the road. And the fact that i have to say cam(s) still pisses me off

        Well, the answer will always be, 3/4 race cam!

          1. I ran Steeda ultralight springs with tokico d-specs and it definitely handled better and got rid of the nose dive etc. but I don't care what anyone claims it will hurt your ride quality some. What you are willing to live with is a personal preference.

          2. MGW shifter is a must buy, order it, if I had known better I would have ordered it the day I bought my car... It just works. Completely fixes the vague 2-3 shift etc.

            I'd say that you're allowed to have your opinion, but that's sadly straight fact.

              MGW - nice short throws, but noisy and notchy, and damn expensive. Should have just got the replacement mount that accomplishes stopping the shifter movement.

              Stock ride height, due to shitty roads around here

              Mine's a track pack car, so Brembo 19"s. I'd go 20"s, if I could find any besides Danny's choice that I like. He never parks where I can trade wheels with him. (JK).

              I have the overpriced '13 GT500 axle backs, which are basically just the mufflers, but because of the dual tip, require the new valance, and cutting your rear bumper. They look great, and sound even better.

                With the variable cam timing, unless you are going full out high boost/race/drag car, then cams are not needed.

                      I see on American muscle that they have just the mufflers that don't have the dual tips. Think it was like $320

                              I like that and it doesn't look like a 4x4, which is nice
