4.77 Gears
Emanage Ultimate
Tune

or eman first... doesnt matter, you would be very happy with all that though, gears should work wonders for your tracking

also, lightweight wheels is a good idea too, i think i heard once that rule of thumb for rotational mass is 6 to 1? I could be wrong, but basically, each pound of rotational mass = 6 lbs of regular mass, so your 20 lb a wheel 18s compared to the 16 lb light weight 17s is technically weighing you down by 96 lbs?

Can anyone back me on that? I could be very wrong, but honestly if thats correct, thats more than enough to make me want to get light weight wheels pronto

sell the 18" wheels and get a set of light 17's....best bang for the buck mod you can do right now for street and track use...my opinion.
Actually, depending on the rims, 18's will be lighter than the 17's. Not the rims themselves but the entire Rim and tire assembly will be lighter.

greddy emu might be able to control the cooling fans. might wanna check that gfirst before draiing the system. aem ems can control the fans, so possibly greddy emu can too. worth checking.

The greddy ecu is a piggy back and going throu the tuner's booklet it advises to use a fan switch & thermostat if going to run on aggressive settings.

Ive also spoken to the tuner who tuned this ecu and recommend this aswell.
