Unless you have your own scaling equipment don't worry about the 50/50 weight until you have finished all your mods. Just keep a good alignment, suitable ride height, appropriate tire pressures and well maintained suspension parts.

Supercharger, common knowledge but I'm more of a natural aspirated type person, I don't need to be forced to breath :)

I am after performance and after installing a roll bar for my safety, I think I need to get the 50/50 weight distribution back on track with a supercharger in the future. :)


If Supercharging, you may not fit your airbox or strut brace. You would also be best to include an intercooler, which also means changing your piping.
