Blue springs in front and yellow rears. 8 hole shock pistons and webbed shock bladders. Other than that I am factory.
The next thing I am doing is going with a thinner sway bar in rear.
One thing I would def recommend, and I think a few people have already said this, is get new shock caps. They are very weak. The rears don't really hit but I got home last night from the race and the first thing I did was order a set for the fronts.
A couple of changes I made on my car for tight indoor racing were:
Change the front diff oil from 5K to 4K
Lower the front inner hinge pins from 0-0 to 1 down-1 down
12 deg. caster blocks
2.3 front swaybar
Opt. 2 akerman bar
1 deg antisquat in the rear, change the insert from 4 down to 6
