I run 17.5 boosted in a big flowing outdoor track with a tight infield as well as indoor
If you plan to run the spool in front I would suggest 46mm Steel Front CVAs or the new steel 44mm DCJs. I would switch all of my turnbuckles out for Titanium. I would have a set of aluminum C-Hubs in m pit box in case you run at a tougher track. I would also have split blocks as an option as well. The car is really good and I think you will see a big improvement over any AE car currently available.
