That's pretty much exactly the set up I want. Would you say it was worth the money on the butt dyno?

Yea I'd say it was worth the money spent; primarily since the OFT never really diminishes in value should you choose to sell it. The torque dip is no longer as drastic in the mid range RPMs. Very tame and no exhaust drone until you hit about 80-85 MPH. A very sophisticated boxer rumble was my end result!

I'd like to check out your setup sometime.

Vinyl decals

Hey y'all my buddy owns a sticker/wrap company and had a ton of these 86 vinyl decals made up. He's selling them 6-7$ each. For size reference the 86 symbol alone is 3.5in. Colors are the same red,gold and white as in the stickers at top. He's printing up some different ones later and I'll post some pictures of what I do with some of these. Also can take any design and get a decal made, thinking about having one mAde to cover the small back passenger window in the sunburst to cover window. Any ideas are cool.

Not terrible yet, but it's coming down pretty hard. I have conti dw in 265 all around... loaded up my trunk and still slipped. :/ I'd head home early if you could.

Stock tires are terrible in snow. I've already had a couple buddies in DFW tell me that they absolutely can't get around with even just a small amount of accumulation.

Having experienced three Illinois winters on summer tires, let me tell you, you're gonna have a bad time. Just stay home or take a car with all seasons.

Still on the stock tires as well nearly down to the wear bars. I'm stuck at work and will probably wait it out, too risky at this point for me. They are terrible in these conditions, although last year it wasn't too bad when there was still tread. But yea be careful man or find another way home.
