^ With your HP numbers, I think that a tire with such grip is a wise choice. I must ask you about any other mods you may have done, but not yet listed...

Brakes...?
suspension...?

You like to go fast, but with the need for speed comes the need to STOP!

Jazzer asks what else you done?

suspension - h&r supersports, tokico hd, mm cc plates.
brakes - some things i don't mind spending the money for but $12-1400 for just front brakes seem a lil rediculous to me. maybe next year. still stock for now...and actually they're still the original brakes-45000 miles.

probably next summer i'll work on the brakes, this year is for cams, headers, tires and wheels.

Ahaaaaa, my friend

You are in luck... Take a look at Brakes Upgrade ~ speeding up slowing down. How would you like to spend $300 INSTEAD of the $1200~$1400 you THINK you need to for good brakes.

Be prepared to have your heart, and your car, STOP!

Suspension is not quite soo cheap, but can spend an equal amount for a wonderful start and would be a set of FLSFC's. If you are daring, read up on my Official Suspension Guide for ALL the goodies you will ever want, or not want, for your suspension.

^ For $300.... he can have BETTER brakes than OEM Cobra, sho-nuff.

Take a look at the guide yourself, some BIG improvements can be made for very little money.
