Very nice choice in cars and what an awesome introduction thread with those pictures. So obviously you are familiar with the tuning and performance aspect of engines, so I must ask what your plans are with the FRC?

Thanks for all the comments guys!

As far as plans for the car, just LT's and a Vararam. Nothing too awful special. I just want to enjoy the car. I love how the car drives now, and I don't really want to ruin that.
