8psi on your stock engine and you'll run 13s and in general its cheaper to do than a set of nice lightweight wheels..pair the turbo with a light weight flywheel after market seats and cf hood and you'll be set..just my .02..

Drive shaft is pretty heavy... you can get a 1 pc and save a few pounds there. It seems a lot of people forget on how heavy the center carrier is.
