Thanks!

Quick update... fired the car up for the first time, ran great! No leaks or abnormal sounds. Changed the oil, and ready to start driving/tuning. Vids to come.

Some pics.

Exhaust came out nice (Huron 3" exhaust w/o mufflers). It just touches the diff housing, so I'll need to go back and see if I can tweak it.

Skid plate needed some work to get right (one flange wasnt bent to the right spot and the rear of skid pad angled down by an inch from font to back). I messaged it to get it to where it needs to be.

Put her on the ground... ground clearance is lousy with the 1” drop I have... 3” at the turbo, 2.5” at the pass side wastegate. Might put the stock springs back on the front to get an inch back. Other than that, I am ready to start tuning/driving.

You could try the supercharger spring spacers. I think they give like a 1/2" of lift. The added weight of the kit definitely makes it sag a bit, I noticed it on my car as well. I've considered doing the spacers but honestly I like the small amount of rake the car has plus I haven't had any ground clearance issues, so why bother. In your case though, they'd probably work out well.

Update... pfadt coilovers did the trick.

Took it out for a quick ride... damn... scary! The car wants 30-40% more fuel now at 11psi than it did at 16psi with the old single setup (817rwhp).

Will spin the dr's from a second gear roll as soon as the boost hits.

LOL, 60 - 200 mph burnouts are cool as long as the car stays straight.....

Sounds like you have a beast on your hands....
