Hey, I own a repair shop, and my advice is this. You can have the best engine, exhaust, headers, intake, interior, ignition, turbo… literally everything. But if you want your car to perform, you need to realize that there are only 4 contact points between that car and planet earth. Improve that contact point any way you can, and you have a better car. I usually splurge on suspension, tires, and brakes… and skimp on engine mods.
was just left on a Koni, Bilstein, Eibach post in the Volvo Repair Database. I thought it was really well said.

At first I thought he was talking about grounding some kind of imaginary circuit.
Ambitious but rubbish
