They have a lot more grip, car sits solid, little bit more noise and resistance. BTW Dunlops are same 215/45r 17)
it feels as if the car rolls easier with primacy...it might be me, but i rode the primacy for 2 years.... And my car is Kind of a extension of myself, wife says she don't exists when i'm behind that steering wheel so there is a lot to win with the Dunlpos at 215/45 17s

Full NA bolt ons now complete

P&L 2.5" over pipe
P&L 2.5" front pipe
P&L 2.5" catback
Cold air intake
Crawford BPB

Aluminum drive shaft
Light weight pulleys



I'll switch out the crank pulley for the stock one once my clutch burns out so I can run an ACT flywheel without harming the crank bearings

Pictures of all my upgrades.

Ok, I've been posting written descriptions of the upgrades to my 2014 Firestorm Red FRS. But, have not sent pictures because I could not make them small enough. Now, with my wife's help, I think I might have figured it out. Let's see.
The upgrades are as follows:
TRD cool air intake, TRD exhaust, TRD front and rear sway bars, TRD rear spoiler. Megan Racing front strut tower brace, Megan Racing rear shock tower brace, Megan Racing rear frame brace. Magic Drift front splitter, Magic Drift side skirts and mud flaps. Painted various under hood parts and brake calipers.
Give me your opinions on my upgrades. It sure handles good and is a blast to drive.

Big apology

Sorry those pictures were so awful. Can't figure out how to upload properly.

I had to figure out a method, but, I still leave most of mine just under the max pixels and size. I open most of my pics in Canon's ZoomBrowser EX and do a save as to the lowest quality (they still look good) and then load those images in Microsoft Paint and scale to allowable pixel dimensions and then upload them. There probably are easier ways, but, this seems to work for me.
