2.5" downpipe too.

Get a tune stay away from the B&M shift plus.

Leave the wing and get some better tires.

DO NOT cheap out on tires.

A nice 50-shot instead of the hood.

^Nitrous = No warranty.

The OEM ss/sc wing is substantially cheaper than the Carbon Fiber version. Or you could buy just the center section as carbon fiber if you're set on the look.

Speaking of that wing. Anybody see/read the ss/tc review where they actually said the big ass wing REDUCED (obviously) top speed buy about 10-12 mph?
