Hi

I can see that there are many advantages with the dry sump system, but I've bought an Accusump system for my car. http://www.accusump.com/

Wheels and paint do indeed look fabulous! I am a little concerned with your smooth deck lid however wrt temps and/or breathing of the engine.

I'd have to suggest an alternate tire, speaking from experience. The KDW2 isn't great, very noisy, and tends to break down in chunks if driven hard. I did really enjoy the new Hankook V12, cheap, and I think they still have a $50 rebate from the manufacturer, plus they still look pretty cool.
