you did good for a noob getting thrashed there, congrats. youll learn to fit in if you keep that attitude. full exhaust is my first concern right now, outside of getting rid of the potenzas on it.

on mine, i had an equal length header, catless uppipe, 3" catless turboback exhast, and a boost controller set at 17psi. after i put in the exedy stage 1 clutch it was rippin off 13.15@105
