You should come by the shop, you can listen to what I have on the board, and you can listen to the ones that I have in my car. Maybe it will help you make a decision.

They say if you don't put expensive speakers in kickpods then its not worth it. I MAY considering doing that to get the door rattle out

I say 5 if I'm lucky, but it may be 5:30. I was just hoping to get out a little early, but it may not happen anyway.

I like my ST, if I had 9k to throw away, I would get the APS extreme TT setup, but for what I have it's a pretty good setup. I am currently in the works of trying to obtain 500whp.

How much are you making now? Have you ran it at the track yet to see what your 1/4 times are?

I am making about 375 whp. That's an estimate. I haven't gotten it to the track, because everytime I turn around, I have something else to fix. Once I upgrade my fuel system, I will bring it out there.
