Finally!!! I think your next mod should be a jack and a couple of jack stands....this way you can change your rims when you want to! Ohhh, and also a torque wrench to torque down the lugs!

Eventhough you don't need a tune for it, but I would put the CF DS in just to see the gains!

Thanks for your help.

Save this car, and buy a better one in a couple of years. Work on your suspension....coilovers, bracing, and really good alignment. Clean her up.
