You are probably already over the limit if you run anything over a 245mm tire. I've just begun competing in TT with NASA and part of the fun is trying different set ups, enjoy the ride!!
I was just looking at Kid's thread thinking that I should make a thread about my car, then I saw yours, you beat me to the punch! There is a lot of knowledge here in the Motorsports forum, make sure that you take advantage of it.. Good luck next season!!

Trans fluid I think is Amsoil, and the rates on the KWs are going to be changed for this season. I need to chat with Hill about the recommended rates. He's running the same coilovers on his badass WRX.

Thanks man! I am running a stock manifold, but I could easily make the swap to E85 right now and pick up a bunch more power, plus the 2.5'' HKS downpipe is choking my setup a bit as well. I'm pretty happy with the power level for the moment though. We'll see how it goes with the new aero pieces.

There are a few in the area supposedly including a couple in Annapolis, but the Fort Meade location is extremely convenient for me and since the government fleet uses it, the supply should stay available.
