Rule of thumb that used to be mounted on Smokey Yunicks wall in his Daytona Beach shop: Speed costs money. More speed costs more money.

The same holds true with any upgrades. Check out Blackbettys list. He has a nice setup, but I'm guessing he has a pretty penny invested too.

as far as a leveling kit im not sure yet probably just one of the billet spacers that go on the coils.
