Right on. You'll see a lot of guys talk great about the Lyndall Gold, myself included. They are nice and progressive without a huge initial bite. But as I said in this thread, not good for track duty.

I hear ya. I will need to pick up a set, probably EBC HH, if I hit the track this year.

I really have no mods planned this year. Maybe a right side air scoop if I can free up some cash, but thats about it.
