Good Lord, six grand in mods is the 'first round'? Why didn't you just buy a better car? lol

JK - that's a slick suspension setup. What's your goal? Are you going to be racing it with the other Vorshlag cars?

I bought all this stuff because I love going to ECR and to the SCCA local autocross events. Vorshlag is gonna be who dials the car in for me.

Jucostud,

No big brakes? You went over the top and got the best that money can buy on everything except brakes. Granted the standard brakes with the motol, SS, and carbotech will stop well on track days. But the Baer or StopTech trophies series are extremely lightweight and will have you stopping all day long for sure.

So why change the exhaust cams and not the intake cams? I've noticed places selling just the exhaust cams, what's the reason behind this?
