    Next Mod?

    So, I have about $75 to drop on the Sonic this month. I'm considering one of the following upgrades: - Hard pipes for stock air box (~$50) - DDMWorks Hard Charge tube ($75) - Boost Gauge (~$60) - Shifter Bushings ($25) However, I think I'd get the most out of the DDMWorks rear brace which is...

    Ehmagawd! I bought a Ford!

    2013 Ford Focus to replace my wife's Mazda CX-9. At the dealer: At home: We like it a lot so far. We would have got a Sonic hatch but I would have only got the turbo, and the Focus was actually cheaper after rebates. Plus it has a bit more room. It's an SE, 5-Speed.

    How much stuff can you fit in your sonic?

    As title states: How much stuff can you fit in your sonic? Particularly interested in the hatchback without folding the seats down. I'm thinking of downsizing my wife's SUV and we've been looking at the Focus and Mazda3 hatchback, but why not a Sonic? I say "without folding the seats down"...

    Late July or August FL meet?

    Hey guys. Since the April meet was a success, wet should try to get something together for late July or August. Which dates work best for everyone? (I will try to put up another meeting date poll soon) Also, I was thinking that either Daytona or the space coast would probably be three best...

    RS suspension

    I may be picking up an RS suspension and I was wondering if the spring rates are known and if the shocks are indeed stiffer than the LT 15" wheel shocks? Thanks

    Custom springs

    Anyone ever had custom springs made for a car? Where did you get it done? I'm looking for a moderate drop (1.5" or so; less than Eibach), and about 40% stiffer rates in the front, 50% stiffer in the rear

    E85 Blend?

    I searched and the only relevant thread I found was locked. BNR mentioned that you can run "E47" 50/50 mix of E85 and 93 with just a tune. Has anyone done this?? Would it work with a budget tune and smart octane to give me more power than 93? Would it hurt anything?

    Longer studs?

    Bridgestone Potenza RE760 vs S-04

    Poll: Which tires would you get? They are both grippy and expensive. I'll be running a 225/45/17. The 760s have 340 treadwear rating and the S-04s have a 280. The S-04s will grip better, but they will wear quicker and are about $100 more per set. Is it worth the reduced wear and extra cost for...
