my current setup places me in STX, since I have lowering springs and a rear strut tower bar. I'm not going to keep my car stock, and I've decided to stick with STX class. The mods I listed above are all compatible with STX, since they don't actually change anything in the engine, change suspension geometry, replace body panels/glass, etc.
I'm going to a "Novice School" for autocross next Saturday, so I will have a chance to see how I do, and what I need to work on, as well as what I need to do to fine-tune my vehicle. I just have all this stuff floating around in my head, and just want to narrow it down.
I figured the power mods wouldn't be as effective as suspension/handling mods. I know R-compound tires are the best for autocross, but I didn't really address the issue above.... Of course, like everyone else out there, I'd like a set of "track" wheels/tires, and a set for street.
I appreciate your input, and I will definitely pay close attention next Saturday when I'm under instruction, and while I'm actually navigating the course. I'll let you guys know how it goes so you can guide me to the right modifications. I'm not going to spend money without being absolutely sure the mods will benefit.
