back from Thunderhill. I'm happy with the way the car is setup. Running a 2:11.25 w Bypass on thunderhill. I was running 2:14 before the BBK, Square 255 setup and Alignment settings + SPG. I'm also learning to be faster at this track.
Looks like there will be a few more modifications coming up. 450/500 spring rates might be something i have to look into. And that LSD/3.46 or 3.64 final drive.

Where did you feel the need for LSD? Coming out of turn 11 into the chicane before the back straight? Or exiting turn 15 onto the front straight? I've done 3 days at T-hill but I was such a noob back then I barely knew what an apex was.

Back to stock.
Ultimately decided the springrates are too soft fo the car. Looking into getting new springs but am torn from where to get it.
Setup seems to say
440lb/in 6" 2.5ID Front
550lb/in 6.5" 2.5ID Rear
GC sells this setup for $253shipped which is very cheap.
A clutch job is approaching and I need to get up and get those parts asap.

Love the build and the car.

I swear I thought I replied to this. I wanted to change my final drive to 3.46 to get a little more uhmph out of the car. According to Jim at Performance Gearing a 12% increase in acceleration. If I am replacing my differential, I might as well get a LSD along with it because I see that in the future and I do not want to do twice the work. It will definitely help with lift-off decel and accelerating out of a corner like Turn 11 you mentioned. Turn 11 I tend to get the driver side rear tire to light up a bit if I am too soon on the gas.
Thanks for all the comments guys
