    Dirty plugs

    Pulled plugs to check today, car is at 38k miles. I am one of the lucky ones who is burning a qt of oil every 1000-1500 miles. Tops of pistons are pretty "sludgy" and plug threads had some good oil on them. Anyone else have this issue? I have simple tune, intake and cat deletes only.

    Who has Koni yellows?

    I'm looking at Koni yellows and the steeda ultra light springs. I only want about 1-1.5 drop. Car is daily driven and will see strip time when they open it back up. Will this combo be able to handle a launch with DR? The car may see a 150 shot in the future. Thanks

    5.4 vs 6.2

    Not worried about stock vs stock. But how does a 5.4 hold up out in the "field" vs a 6.2? Not power, but driveability, longevity, etc. Any known issues with the 5.4? I'm looking at a used 2012 with 5.4 but is it worth it to hold out for a 6.2? Thanks

    Quick weight reduction?

    Id like to shave a little weight off the car. I know you can take off the weights on the rear axle, gut the trunk, back seat. But is there anything else that can come out that's worth while? I will leave pass seat and carpet in, and dont want to take door panels off etc. Parts will come in time.

    12 5.0 vs 12 V6

    On the way home, saw a guy in a V6 A6 car driving aggressive. So I pulled up next to him, car has nice wheels, exhaust, but still sounded like a V6. He nailed it, I grabbed 3rd at about 50 and just powered right past him to about 80. It did suprize me tho for a V6. Hit a light, he staged I kinda...

    First was rolling toward the freeway, and a guy in a Honda CBR600 (the slow version) rolls up next to me and revs a few times. I nod and downshift motion for him to go, he hits it and I follow.
