Suspension;

KYB front and rear adjustable shocks & struts

ZZP Wbody lowering springs

Moog front and rear strut mount kit

Only a very slight lowering, about 3/4", looks perfect

Front and rear strut tower stabilizer bars



Exhaust;

DMH Electric variable cutout. Crack open for more rumble, open fully for roar and better turbo performance and turbo sound :).

Catalytic converter delete, factory muffs, is perfect for sound and performance. Remember, this is a 'sleeper'.



Brakes;

Front and rear are the best replacements ZZP had to offer.

Front; Cadillac ATS-V Brembos, drilled/slotted

Rear; GXP rear, drilled/slotted



Tires/rims;

The perfect setup for tire size and rim offset. Fills wheel wells perfectly, how it should have been from the factory!

Front tires; 245/40/18 Nitto drag radials. (absolutely brand new)

Rear tires; 245/40/18 Yokohama Advan AS

Rims; custom made Forgestar CF5 18x8.5



Condition;

No rust no dings no dents.

Interior is perfect, rear never sat in.

Never driven in winter and always garage kept even in summer.

Not driven much since build.



Power;

Many hours of professional dyno tuning for engine/tranny.

Tuned for E85.

Innovate ethanol gauge mounted in center dash to make sure you have high enough a %.

Next to it is an AEM Tru Boost electric boost control and gauge, switchable between 7psi, 13 psi, and 20psi

Dyno measured at wheels;

20psi: 458 FWHP , 492 FT-LBS

13psi: 368 FWHP , 451 FT-LBS

7psi: 266 FWHP , 375 FT-LBS

Estimated calculated at crank;

20psi: 590 HP , 600 FT-LBS

It is and was designed to go about as far as you can go with these cars without having too many quirks for daily street driving.

Have never taken it but should do 1/4 mile in the 12's by using an online calculator.



Sleeper Features;

Common color

Pin stripe

Nothing visually standoutish unless you are looking (drag radials, brakes, sliver of the intercooler)



Niceties;

Power sunroof

Power everything

Heads-up display

Perfect shade of grey tinted windows

A double din Pioneer touchscreen stereo I never got around to putting in if you would like it.



Original rims and tires available if you would like.

Also, available, I have M&H front drag radials that are practically brand new as well that I removed as they weren't very good for
everyday(smoothness), but if you plan on taking it to the track I would recommend putting them on some cheap rims and using them
so you don't burn through the nice Nittos.
