Rapid tire wear. Poor gas mileage, and I caught a severe case of leadfootitis.

I get mine from Rolo. He's my hero. But I haven't had any problems, which is why I'm probably in for S3. But my car is a weekend driver only. I only have 7100 miles on it and its an 03.

Only the insatiable desire for STAGE II! But not for 1600.00!

The biggest problem is you get used to the power reeeeaaaaalllly fast and want MORE!!! It's friggin' addictive.
I've had my S1 for not even a month. The only downside has been the gas mileage dropping - directly related to foot pressure. I blame it on the cadaver ligament in my right knee (dirt bikes - gotta love 'em) - it's POSSESSED!

My car crossed 11k this weekend. No issues but the shagged tires.
