I had the Yoko Advan Advan AD08 on my previous car, and they are an excellent tire (a bit on the pricey side though). The grip is almost on par with R-compound, but warm up much faster, so they are safer to use on the street. Treadwear is 180 if I recall correctly.

Power goals is also still open, but first i will take about 500whp. Depends what turbo i use first. I will try different setups and build all to support big gains Main thing is that i get good tool for track use, so have to check. More information later...

SST will not hold, if i dont get MR´s TCU + aftermarket clutches... I will use different gearbox when car is ready. Maybe engine break in with SST.
I will ask Razorlab make me tune as long as i have SST and OEM ECU. I wouldnt thrust anyone else.
With different gearbox, i have to use standalone aftermarket ECU, and tunes with it will make one guy here in Finland.
But let´s just hope that clutch line pressure and other things are sorted out when engine is ready, so no need for manual transmission.
