I echo FLEX'N's comment of some big brakes to slow this beast down, but fitting something in your RPF1s and those stock wheels could be tough (esp larger 6 piston setups). Brembos would look nice in a 17x9 RPF1, I have been exploring those 5x100 STIs of the past for some meatier wheels/tires... Nothing compares to the cost and weight of those, great wheels!

Then again, leave those brakes alone and people will just wonder where your hood scoop went until you create a black hole from a rolling 40 launch
Yeah, I would need some spacers to clear any big brakes with RPF1's.

Well, I hope you enjoy it! I always like getting a new exhaust!
