As an aside, surprised how long this thread is getting...lots of good information though...maybe we need a pro-touring section?
I'm surprised as well. I thought I'd get a few responses and come to a quick conclusion. Instead, you guys have contributed so much great information and have taught me a lot. As a result, it has caused my thinking about the direction for the car to evolve. So, many thanks to everyone for that.

As for the spring de-arching, that's a cool thing to know and that would be a much more economical way to go, but I think I'm sold on the PTFB stuff. I'm pretty much going all out with their stuff and I'm really looking forward to it. Should be awesome. Just doing my part to support the economy. LOL.
