No launch control in a 2012, that would be my right foot lol. But seriously it is a lot better. Just stick 50lbs in the spare tire well and we are good to go!

A few updates, I did the Eibach springs, Airaid intake and just got in a set of F1 concepts rotors and pads.







Finally getting some time to mod now, oh and I got rid of the Indy 500 tires and went with a set of PS4. Soooooooo much better.

Keep us updated on how you like these most recent changes!  I hear good things about R1 kits, so hope it holds true for the V.

So I've had the R1's in for a couple of days now, doesn't feel any different from stock so far (which were really good). I still have a set of Red stuff pads in the rear on a different set of cross drilled rotors. The red stuff pads are noisy as hell, the R1's in comparison are silent. I'll definitely replace the rears with R1 once I get some more use out of them. I highly recommend the R1's, and they look bad ass!
