wtf....isnt that why we pay $250 a tire. R&D to make sure we not acting like theater actors auditioning for the nutcracker on the road. Well at least you walked away. thank God you didnt crack your nuts.

anything you pay only 250 for will be complete garbage. dump the GYs ASAP. Michelin pilot super sports will be a great upgrade and make it feel as if you are driving completely different car.

OP: nice whip. you have a performance pack car. Google or search on this site to find all the Easter eggs as to what comes with PP. what did you pay?

$250/tire might be a little light. While the Goodyears are probably the worst, any ultra high performance summer tire gets real dangerous when the mercury drops. I almost got bit on a fairly cold morning a few years back with Michelin Pilot Super Sports. I wasn't even into boost and the rear started changing lanes on me. It happened so slowly that when I let off after realizing the rear was drifting off into the other lane, the car snapped rather violently back into position.

Welcome Toro! Excellent taste in color. Sounds like your Mrs. is a keeper. My lady gets a tingly feeling about my car too so I knew she was the one hehe.

Id say at the moment your car is about a Stage 1. The estimated HP does look a little high, Id believe 600 wheel with the mods as listed. If you ever decided to upgrade to the 13-14 TVS, add another 100hp plus a very nice torque curve.

As of now, you should think about a 170 thermostat and an upgraded intercooler pump. Those will help keep any kind of heat soak issues at bay.

Welcome!

Welcome to SVTP, and congratulations on buying that nice GT-500. Low miles and nice starting mods. You don't have to do much to it for now, except for the tires upgrade and 179 t.s. and maybe the recommended intercooler pump upgrade. You're going to smile so much driving that beast you're going to have sore cheeks. LOL.
