Enjoy the ride.

Is the car stock? I'd do headers before the bypass mod. You'll get a much truer, meaner sound

Mild street cam (comp cam) with updated valve springs/pushrods
Kooks LTs
Halltech cai
Ported throttle body

Pretty happy with the car but the clutch will take time to get used to.. Clutch pedal is about 1.5" lower than brake pedal and it's pretty much on/off feel. Very little travel.

Efx, I wonder if you need to change the clutch hydraulic fluid or perhaps have it adjusted.

My clutch is not like that at all.
