RANDOM PICS I TOOK
I LOVE HOW THE RSR SUPERDOWN SPRINGS LOOK AND FEEL ON THIS CAR . ITS A LITTLE MORE OF A STIFF FEELING TO THE CAR, BUT I LIKE THAT IT GIVES IT MORE OF A SPORTY FEEL.
I WILL GET A ALIGNMENT AFTER 200 MILES ,AND WILL POST A PIC OF THE SPECS HERE.
NOW FOR THE WHEELS UGH ITS SUCH A HARD CHOICE....
I CANT DECIDE ON WHEELS I WANT SOME VOSSEN CV7'S BUT SOMETHING KEEPS HOLDING ME BACK TO PULL THE TRIGGER LOL..
IF YOU GUYS HAVE SOME IDEAS THROW THEM AT ME IM LOOKING FOR WHEELS LIKE I SAID
THANKS ALL HOPE YOU ENJOY THE PICS AND VID

Not much drone at speed ,overall you have to remember our cars have like two cats and also a resonator and then a muffler... So takeing off the muffler...I thought did justice .. Like any other exhaust you have to expect a little bit of drone even Joez exhaust has a drone and that's $1500 (not hateing on joez btw) I'll post a in cabin vid soon

Thanks ,was going to start with the resonators myself but haven't even looked under my car yet.Just had it a week and haven't had time to get it in my shop yet...I will more then likely start with this now and go from there sometime the easiest way is the best...

How about deleting 1st cat and the resonator.Thenput and put an X pipe in place of resonator and run it out to stocks mufflers.I think that'll will be the sweet spot/sound.. Make sure you run bigger pipe size for the midsection and Xpipe until you get to the stock exhausts. I think this will sound good and looks clean.replacing that mid pipe will give you that growl sound.and having the stock mufflers on, will keep drone down to a minimum..
Just my 2 cents!!!
here's mine with Invidia full cutback system.
only mid pipe on ::

i see what your saying but getting rid of first cat would probably set the check engine light off and that won't go away till o2sensor is back in original cat

That muffler delete you got sounds a lot better then what i expected it to sound. I was thinking about getting either that or a resonator delete, didnt know which one. I don't really like how it sounds in higher RPM's tho, 4k+ sounds too raspy and too cheap for a car of its class imo
i need somebody to take the risk and get a resonator delete
