    The fat front bar with stock rear bar has a similar effect, I think. Zero body roll entering a corner, but it’s pretty tail happy, which is fun with only 100whp. Really gotta commit to get yourself in trouble. I’ve got a lower ratio LSD sitting in the garage for when I thought I was moving forward with the turbo project. I should swap it in but then I’ll be making the car 10% even slower

      On the power front, de-belting my a/c was one of the best things I did along with a cheap-ass OBX header. I’m sure it only frees up a very small bit of power but the motor gets just a bit snappier. Always dragged my feet on putting it back on in the summer because once you’re used to the lack of drag adding it back in felt like choking the poor thing.
