No problem Mike. Just when everything was finally right then this happens. Well I'm N/A now with a osiris turbo tune. I will get it retuned once I get my MD exhaust installed next week. I already had the muffler I just need to install it to the xyz pipe and test pipes.

Sorry for the thread jack Manard. Post up some b4 and after pics whenever you get them installed. I know that you could install the sways yourself.

If I was for sure going to get rid of my car I would sell you my camber arms. I know the precision Z has a new set of SPL camber arms.

oh... I need front (A-arms)... I'm on Eibach Pros - but since upsizing to 19" wheels, my front (particularly right) camber is too negative.

not a problem man!
I installed the sway bars finally last night. the bolts on the front is a PITA to take off. needed to soak the bolts w/ WD40.
But it really made the difference! I put the front and back on medium settings

Nice!! Mike your car looks mean with the wheels!! What are your wheel offsets?

What did I tell you Manard a night and day difference with the sways.

I miss them, but oh well they are now making someone else happy in the corners!!

They have a set of A-arms in stock also. I forgot how much they were though. I have a appt at church's for 2pm on friday to retune. Come by if you got the time.

The car feels sluggish running this turbo tune especially after 3k when boost is supposed to hit my A/F is probably between 11.0 and 11.7.

Mike what tunes do you have on your car? Send a pm.
