Basic stage2 w/ a protune is where it's at. I'm more than satisfied and don't see the need to upgrade for power anymore than what it already is. That is until 4080 get's back and rapes me, then it's on like donkey kong .

Power: Stage 2. You'll feel an immediate difference.

Handling: New Wheels and good tires or sway bars.

Looks: New Wheels and good tires.

that's a good way to put it... Thanks

and also, I was wondering if I should repaint my rims? The te37's are bronze, and I was thinking about getting em painted white...any opinions/advice on this? I figured I'd get these painted instead of selling them, then buying another set that's white.
