    Hope you have a way to tune...otherwise...don't bother...seriously.

    You'd be pissing all that money down the drain.

    A well tuned 3.4 setup with some weight reduction and super grippy tires would get to 13.5's

    Darn, well my whole point of buying this GTP was so i can mod it and make it hella fast. being in school and part time job can give me the money to mod, but not the money to repair these said mods and what they my cause to fail. Sigh, last 5 months feel like wasted energy saving and dreaming.
    And hella fast as in like 3.4 pulley fast in 13's/low 14's.
