Replaced my coils and wires. No more sputtering at the moment but now it's falling on its face under throttle and feeling like it's running NA at high speeds

Changed the front brakes, Prime choice slotted and drilled rotors with Powerstop ceramic pads. Coming from Akebono pads and Centric rotors, these seem to have more bite, but we'll see, I doubt the drilled and slotted rotors make a huge difference, but they look nice and were cheaper than Napas blank rotors

No... But one of my friend have those wheels and he correct me. He told me that those wheels are 15 or 20 offset. My bad, I thought was 35 offset as my wheel.
