There's a few good deals out there right now on Dark Stars, so I'm trying to find the best combination for my car. I have an 06 Saleen S281,76mm turbo 5m,373 gears,McLeod RST, wotbox, cortex lca, watts link, and I occasionally take my car out for cruises, car shows or joy rides, not a daily driver. I don't want to have to run a relocation bracket, so looks like the best choice is a 15x8 & 275/60 Mt et street radial. I want to make a few solid passes at my power level before I forge it (hopefully next summer). I'm thinking about switching to 331 gears because it takes so long to build boost in first gear. I did a few datalog runs for Lito to finish my tune & ran a 12.7 @115 on 7psi, 2.2 60ft on 20in Michelin pilot ss, which are obviously not a good tire for the strip. I'm guessing my hp will go up some with the final tune. Considering what I have, and keeping in mind that I'm not looking to drag the car any more than a few times a year, what would you change or suggest for a tire, gear, etc? Thanks in advance.

He means sway bar relocation kit.

Its a 20 min job to do, not hard at all.

He probably just doesn't want to cut on the car.

Sorry guys, yes, I meant rear sway bar relocation brackets. It's a 76mm TTIX Turbo kit sold be Granatelli. Running 9psi with a manual boost controller.

And I couldn't run a sway bar relo bracket wroth the watts I'm told, that it interferes with it.

If you don't want to run relocation brackets get a whiteline rear sway bar it mounts to the axle and will work with your watts. No need for the mount relocation brackets and cutting as it deletes those mounts.
