Maybe a Ferrari guy or two should be invited out to every cruise, and sent out in the lead to draw the fire.

We don't need a Ferrari as the lead car for 2 reasons.

1. They are too slow.
2. We have the Zook, he draws alot of attention, women and Police.

Why don't we take your car to a deserted airport and attempt to
break the sound barrier.

Screw the plenum, go for the bigger turbos. Your wife will never know the car has bigger nuts.

the jumper makes a good point. but if you're switching turbos, for the effort and downtime you might as well go to something bigger than K24's.

I don't need plenums, or turbos, I need suspension. PSS 9 or 10 will do.

With the potholes we have this year, what you really need to do is jack the car up and add softer springs... 4x4 style!

A 959 would be appropriate.
