You might want to talk to Scott at Softronics as he is not convinced the IPD/GT3 TB makes more HP. If possible don the car before/after any mods so you know what really works.

I also had to add larger front brakes and added cooling to the rear brakes.

I also added a diff cooler to keep the temps down in the lsd.

Which brakes did you put?
Are you running in gtb1 ?

Any info on the cooler?

Thx

I ended up putting stop tech ST-60 on the front. There are a lot of choices. I needed to get this done and didn't have a lot of local help so ST was a turnkey solution. I got the nicer setup for around 3k. The brembo's were nice as well but you have to remove the caliper every time you change the pads...lot of extra work. The cooler is trunk mounted and cooled with air from a nada duct in the ls quarter window and a blower. It came from Chris Smith racing and is a pretty slick setup.

The only issue I am having now is the engine oil is going to 253 degrees in a 30 min spring race so need to figure that out.
