Great start Brad...  :thumb:

What are your plans after the downpipes?  More performance mods? .... Next aesthetic mod?

Some pics would be awesome.  TIA

As far as what's next I'm not sure. I have a list of possible mods, but my budget won't get it all. Probable mods are window tint, lowering springs or coilovers, center gauge pod, SEL tail lights, and interior and exterior led's. From there I could either go with wheels and exhaust, or meth. Time will tell. I will be sure to add pics as I update.

Received all my parts. Now all I have to do is book some time on my Dad's lift.


- 3 bar MAP
- Corsa exhaust
- PPE catted down pipes
- EcoPower hot pipes
- Megan coilovers

I'm seriously considering wrapping them in Christmas paper so I can "unwrap" them.

Joe Olsen @ Fire Guys Tinting in Antioch IL made my car look a little meaner yesterday.  35% all around.
