Thanks...yea i knew when they went on...

no drop or mods to suspension its firm enough and I can just barely get into my parking structure at work...I gotta get used to the poke LOL handles so much better its like wide track on steroids. This car is firmer than the 525 on V2 coils....

Recent dyno with exhaust above and all cats resulted in 266/244 and revs to 7,000! Tuner said there was some more power on the table so I found some second hand parts and went to work! Sourced out a magnaflow 4x9 single offset "resonator", deleted secondary cats, added downpipes, and did a muffler delete its all 2,5 until the end its 3 to 4 inches. the tip is 4

Very nice work so far Adam, but that car is SCREAMING "Drop me!!!!". The new wheels look great and the exhaust is pretty creative.
