[QUOTE="SlowYellow, post: 15964677, member: 27638"] Thanks for all of the suggestions, and I think that I will just save the pennies for the M9, seems to be the smartest choice. The thing that terrifies me about this car, and I'm not sure if it's just because I got used to the IRS in my old Cobra, but when I go on my "drive" it's down a small two lane road, and when I cross over and really get on it to pass someone, the rear end gets SUPER loose. To the point that I have to back out of it. I know that the mods that I listed were all power mods, but I have the additional: BMR upper mount and upper control arm BMR lower control arms BMR panhard bar and brace All of those things are poly end/spherical end bars, no major NVH to talk about. I thought that that would fix my "walking" issue with my rear end, and it did not, at all. It feels like the rear end is shifting, followed by SEVERE body roll and for sure a wreck if I didn't back out of it. I'm wondering if I'm spinning, I have new MT DR's on it, but they are 20's. My cobra always had those on it, and it never spun, even when cold and I was running about 650 WHP with that one. Not nearly the torque that this one is running, they really are two different beasts though. But the tires are the exact same tires, just 18's on the cobra and 20's on the GT500. As far as gear recommendation, I feel like the 4.10's would be overkill. I'm sure that I could be talked into them though, lol. Again, thanks for all of the feedback. [/QUOTE]
