    VT Stage 1's or Stage 2's

    If you have the cash, might as well go with the Stage II's. I say that because of the spring swap and tune..... I didn't notice any loss of hp/torque down low, the sound is incredible and if you're gonna add a shot, from what Jim at V/T tells me, they love the juice...both of their N/A cams...

    Nah, get 4.88's and be done. The guy needs good info and we have real world experince. Why let the dude spend money that he'll regret spending?

    How well do LCAs work?

    They'll help you some but those lowering springs aren't doing you any favors. Get some Fox V8's for the rear and Fox 4 cyl springs for the front...now we're talking!

    4 cyl springs ?'s, pics?

    I got about a 1 inch drop using the top isolator only. And yes, the front end will lift and dive quicker. Might as well get some Fox V8 rears while you're at it for the back....

    DR's on stock rear end?

    Don't sweat it too much helty, there have been people running slicks for years on the stock 8.8. It's just luck of the draw....

    DR's on stock rear end?

    Not to rain on this parade but back a couple of years ago and on only my second pass on Nitto DR’s…launching around 4k I snapped the driver’s side axle. I moved maybe a foot off the starting line…. Just play it safe and don't dump the clutch...

    Springs without isolators

    They don't equal to much at all but you'll probably want to leave the top one on to cut down on road noise...

    4.10's or 4.30's... Need some help, which is best for me?

    Difficult to tell you exactly how much of a difference. I haven't made it back to the Motorplex to find out. My SOTP meter tells me it's a touch quicker (talking about pre cam install here). I wouldn't go back if that helps. Mine is also a daily driver and I have no problems cruising 75 mph on...
