Buy a 58mm t/b and an airfoil and a tornado. I was solidly into the 11's with a stock 48mm t/b but if you want to **** away a couple of hundred bucks go ahead.

He states he wants a replacement for the stock t/b on his 95,in post 11 is where he gives the info above. He doesn't say his car is stock.
As far as a brand pick your poison.
