How loud is your car now with exhaust and intake installed?
thanks

I like it. I am an "Ese"! I actually have family in Califas! Near San Jose/Santa Cruz.

The exhaust only has tips for now, I have ordered some Magnaflow Mufflers but it will be a few weeks before they are installed. You can only hear the intake when you punch it. It's not too loud but you can definitely hear it and I think it sounds amazing! The Magnaflows shouldn't be overly loud though. Once they are installed I will be posting a sound clip. (I will have plenty of time to learn how to do that before they get here!)

please dont forget to post a video clip of the sound of the mufflers, i was thinking of doing maganflow mufflers for a WHILE now just killing me to know how it sounds and is it worth it to kill the quiet ride


good luck

just noticed something,
would be cool if your plate read 430 instead of 340

Yea, I noticed that too... I've considered some personalized plates but not sure what to get yet. And yea, as soon as the exhaust gets done, I will post the sound clip.

car looks nice, but i'll pass on the wheels.. little plain.

Thanks for the comment, just out of curiosity are you referring to the wheels on the car or the ones on the Honda that I'm looking at? The ones on the Honda are 20's and the ones on the car now are only 18's.

Nice ride!

The grille and spoiler make the car!

What about wheels? What width's can fit under a 430?
The current set look too narrow.

Thanks, I'm in the process of upgrading to staggered wheels in a 20x8.5 and 20x10 (or bigger if I can make them fit). The current wheels are just 18's and I bought them with the car. I'm having a hard time deciding on what I want and I already spent a lot of $$$ on all the other mods! I'm now thinking that I should have bought the wheels first! From what I've seen, I think you can go as wide as a 10.5" on the rear if you roll the fenders and get the right offset.

i like the wheels on the Honda, they "look like" the Ashanti Brand... i've seen several LS w/ those wheels

Nice..can't wait to you with some new wheels

For me, I don't like it. It screams high-school add-ons. This isn't a Civic.

However, I'm torn because it's unique - I think I like the blacked out grill and the pink calipers. To each his own, and if you dig it then that's cool! I like the V8 logo but hate the Tom's stickers and the rear spoiler.
Wheels I could go either way on.

How's that for a mixed response?

04_LS_430R

High School Add ons? Well to be quite truthful my son (who is 14) has had a lot of influence on the design. The calipers aren't pink but I get that response quite a bit. They are very very red. The Tom's Decal was included because my son wanted them but they have since been removed because they started delaminating. The spoiler is my favorite addition. Thanks for the honest remarks, they are appreciated.
