i think you mentioned this was still a street car for hpde right? If it was me i would not replace the steering wheel unless it's a dedicated track car. Also if you intend to use the harness do it only with a helmet and hans device. And if you want pull the airbag fuse at the track.

listen to this post or you may die.

I can see the most important thing is the roll cage, Leaving oem steering wheel with air bag stay in C level or get a roll cage and Hans system to get in B, is that correct?

You realize that you will have to wear a helmet AT ALL TIMES in a caged car, right? Otherwise a fender bender may leave you even more brain damaged than you are right now. A caged car on the street is a retarded idea.

You should do NOTHING to the car's safety systems until you have a good deal of track experience. Stock seats, restraints and airbags. Your skill level is below the car's capabilities, so no parts other than a set of brake pads will be required for you to make the most of your track time. Once your skill level comes up you'll know WHY you need things, not just that all the cool kids on facebook all like these mad tyte seats yo.

Don't ask us. We're not authorities on this stuff. Find out what shops near you prep cars for heavy track use and go talk to them.

Also, be aware that harnesses and a lot of other safety gear has an expiration date. Don't think that the stuff you buy is going to keep you safe for the life of the car.

Take the advice of these guys. They are trying to keep you from meeting your ancestors before your time.

how about adding seat, cage, and harness and keep oem steering wheel with air bag for the first step?

No cage for a street driven car. Cage and helmet goes together. No helmet, no cage.

Look at the Porsche GT2/3/4’s. They have optional cage from factory, but only back half, not the front half of the cabin.
