congrats ! First LB viggen conv I have seen. Looks awesome btw. get the steering rack clamp/brace, they simply tighten up steering wheel so ur hands don't have to when accelerating hard. Without em ull feel like you are riding a real lightning bolt sometimes. Rear ARB upgrade offers probably most handling bang for the buck but they come in a couple different flavors. Conv might need more special tuning. talk to the crew at GS or other Viggen Conv owners here. R ur original wheels still circular? if so then I'm jealous and try to avoid hitting anything like potholes especially on high speed, they're said to b made of hardened eggshell with metallic paint. and they tend to turn to their original egg shape if not watchful. How's ur front air dam scrapes? pay attention driving in and out of lots and over speed bumps. those drive thru deals may not b worth it. Who knew asphalt was harder than even Swedish lightning bolt! if u wanna know what ur breathing whilst driving get a new cabin air filter. to stiffen up the chassis there r lots of metal and urethane pieces available. be very careful when modifying air intake. one bad move and a crazy MAF can melt the pistons for lunch, an expensive lunch. Carry a spare DIC/IDM unless u actually want to spend time on the side of an open road of course in ur State of independence mesmerized at the sight of ur beautiful LB viggen. if u got nuff money leftover after budgeting for all the spare parts for the rest of ur ownership, I'd get LSD and shorter stick shifter to race to the end of that ownership even faster. Don't pay too much attention to boost this and that unless ur car feels like a Yugo, or ull actually cause boost to get mad at u and ull have to turn ur viggen into a pressure cooker with a pressure gauge. As u probably already anticipated before buying ur viggen, these cars are a lot of fun and even more so as u get to learn more, so ask away, enjoy ur ride, be safe, and welcome to the club of lightning hell. don't get me wrong I luv my viggen but i also don't mind hell. sorry for the long rant. my major service is coming up and it's hard to hold down my excitement!
