Hi Casey,

None are really wrong...

These are all good available options; but, I would challenge you to try each one yourself and determine what is best for you on your track. This is a major step towards becoming a great car tuner.

Besides...What do we know? LOL

Haha, cookie is the genius on this one. I switched up to the hw 120a to give her a whirl. On a side note, there sure are a lot of crc gen xi kits showing up lately here in Minnesota. If you can't beat em, join em Thanks for a great car CRC!!
