Yeah, thanks Damien! (Why are we thanking Damien.)

Anyway... If he can afford it, Koni shocks, and a 25mm front swaybar with
BFG R1's. This is your basic (to me anyways) "stock" setup to begin with.
Without a doubt, tires will be the best investment he can do to begin
with. Then again, if this is his first year, he might want to run on
street tires to get a good feel for the car. 
Anybody care to chastise/expand my view on this?? :)
