More Boost, got a 3" pulley for my Comptech kit, will hopefully see 12-13 psi, still debating if im going to install the water/meth kit or not. Bigger injectors, SOS map sensor, SOS throttle body, Trying to get my hands of an aftercooler. Spring- wrapping the rest of my car, maybe get my CE's powder coated.
what size pulley are you running now?

Only plans I have for winter is to upgrade the brakes for next summers track time. Thinking the Wilwood set. I really learned the limits of the stock setup this year.
Other then that I already dumped the AEM for Kpro. Only put about 30 miles on it after that upgrade but already love it!

I guess i have to do some research as these are 16 - adjust and i was looking at 32 -adjust for same price.. hmmmm
I may have to go in a ride .. I drove in Robbies car and fell in love with Bilstein's.. and he was boosted too so no jerk back
Guess it can hurt to see who has these for a test drive

For what it's worth, I rode in Sam's car at WMHM and was incredibly impressed. Also, considering the rest of Sam's stable, I trust his opinion on ride quality.
Christmas money will determine if I can buy my Asura exhaust back sooner rather than later.

32 adjustments isn't necessary and it's overkill. The ride in mine is very comparable to stock, much smoother than the Eibach springs I had before. I've had other coilovers on previous cars, these are by far my favorite. I'm currently running H&R coils on my Scirocoo and they simply do not compare, they are much more harsh over bigger bumps.
You are more than welcome go for a spin in mine.

not sure the size, but I see 7lbs. I make 300rwhp non aftercooled. I have lower compression 10:1 pistons in my block now. with the same pulley on the stock block I made 330rwhp before.

^ with that 3" pulley you can kiss them goodbye I plan on the same for the clutch, been very pleased with SOS products and their service! Just not sure on the other 2 yet. I just hope they both hold up for the dyno.
