I'm gonna stick with the 3.69. Torque will be maybe 50lbft lower with superchargers. And because it's centrifugal, torque generally increases with power, so the car has a bit of momentum as well. Regarding tires, I will probably try the RE-11's. They are a great street and track tire. I'll buy them with the rim's I've been eying.

I figured with the twins it was gonna make things a bit more interesting. Definitely right about the centrifugal, coming into boost wont shock the tires so much. New shoes?! Do tell. Good choice on the RE-11s. Im kicking myself in the face for the PSSs
