    Nope there's no way the Piston can hit the plug fullstop. Unless either a) wrong plug b) a dead rod bearing

    PS: progressive to non swap?

    The pully on the PPS pump is a different diameter so you'll have more assistance on a non PPS rack, this was ok with my suspension settings and 265 front tires but it might be a bit floaty/imprecise.

    Clutch Pedal comes up too far b4 engaging

    Not really as long as you get enough travel to select gears without grinding, I just find too much freeplay annoying.

    Whats your fastest highway mph ??

    The bumpers for the drivers side window on mine need adjusting as it moves around a LOT over 150 so that's been my limiting factor. Might tape the screen molding as well thanks!

    how much power can the rest of the car take

    1: Depends a lot on driving style and general condition of the trans 2: Again a bit general and vague of a question, street tires if everything is in good condition LOTS slicks not so much. 3: NEVER heard of a Mk3 breaking an axle I'm sure it happens but it's not common.

    Good drugs this week I see.....:nono: A road tune is a vital component of a tune, it goes hand in hand with a dyno session to set WOT mixtures and timing and the general maps.
