    ebay lowering springs

    that's a nice lookin ride! Lowered white cars kick a$$ (my cobra is white). I want to raise it a little because it bottoms out all the time, even just from dips in the road at speed. I measured the distance from the wheel arch to the ground an its 26.5" front an 26.75" rear.

    Any opinions on this gauge pod setup?

    If you like it, enjoy it. I'm going to add a gauge or three but I'm thinking about an a pillar pod so I don't have to do anything to the dash. If I went with two gauges I'd get the one that replaces the speedo trim piece with a 2 gauge pod.

    Better using OD? Or turn off OD?

    OD on is better for fuel economy. From what I understand the main reason for being able to turn it off is so when you're cruising around town at 30-35ish, it won't shift in an out of OD.
