Hey bud that car looks excellent!!!
Couple questions for ya'???
1. Are those 18" mono's or the stock 17"s??
2. What suspension setup do you have as far as spring pad # back and front as well as what type of springs???
I am going to be installing springs/shocks within the next month or two and have been checking out what others have used. Personally I think the stance on your car is perfect. I want to have an equal gap between the front and rear. Not really a rake but I hate when the reat appears lower than the front. It seems that if you just install springs you will retain the lower rear fender gap from factory settings. This is obviously if your springs have the same drop rate for all 4 corners...
Looks Great!!

1. I have 18" Monoblocks from Tire Rack, I think these wheels look best. They give the car a clean yet aggressive look.
2. As far as the suspension goes I have H&R springs (cut 1 coil) with the largest/thickest pads front and rear, this give more of a "comfortable" ride.
I have RennTech Stage 1 (ECU) only.

How does the ECU upgrade perform???
Thought about having a Kleemann ECU done. I know they don't produce mounds of power but the change in characteristics could be useful. As far as load limits and preventing the dead spot when you hit it hard from a stop.
