oops!
Been driving my car pretty hard last couple of nights. been going out with friends and racing.. etc.
About 30 mins ago, on my way home, i was playing with an a4 and a scion tc. anyway, thats not the point, i got it up to around 130mph today, about 110 yesterday. today, after i slowed down from 130mph, the front-right started shaking like crazy. i pulled over asap. checked if my tire was flat or anything. nope. i start driving again, and my steering wheel started shaking like mad! couple months ago, i topped my car out at 140+ and broke all 4 TPMS bands. had them replaced under warranty cuz the guys were super cool guys.
When i broke all 4 bands, it wuold shake at any speed. As of now, my car doesnt shake until after 60-65.
Questions:
1- anyone know what this could be?
2- i have bbk intake installed, have the tune on my desktop, but havent put it in yet, i also have 93 octane gas in the tank without the tune. should i replace it to stock intake, if i decide to take it in?
EDIT: i forgot to mention.. when i broke all 4 bands it popped up on my dash. nothing on the dash right right now.

[ol][*]wheel balance problem[*]suspension problem[*]tire defect[/ol]
BTW, I have my stock 18" SVT fanblades available.
And if it's suspension, new wheels won't help.

Well if you do decide to go 18's, PM me about your rims!
