Cool when will you get those koni yellows? I wanna change my setup, may go the same route.
As soon as they have both the front and rear shocks out on the market. In all my previous cars, Koni + H&R are the best daily set-up by far :)

It's really very mellow inside the car but its a nice loud on the outside. I really dig the turbo whistle because I am a child. The drilled out grill is just the fake holes on the front grill drilled out individually with a large drill bit to get more airflow to the radiator. I saw this done on one of the rally ST. I am running a green filter panel with the bottom of the stock airbox drilled out. As soon as I figure out my intercooler situation I might do an intake but right now I am satisfied with set-up.
It sounds good nevertheless. And what's the intercooler hold up? Just can't decide on which one? I'll be going Cobb intake and intercooler hopefully in the Spring, depending on the tax return fairy. Ha.

Curious Stunt, why do you want to change from the BC coilovers?
I miss the stock suspension feel and handling. Im OCD and not satisfied with height, preload and balance so im constantly wanting to make adjustments. The only place I can work on my car is in the street or pay someone with a shop. I just want suspension thats fixed so i dont have to worry about that anymore.

Exactly same thing I'm going for later on. I'm going to do the Pierce bar and 2 pt brace first and see how that improves thing. Then onto performance parts then suspension. But springs and shocks will be the route I go also. Seems simple enough to me.

Hey I know there are like a million videos of exhausts that have been put up in this thread already, but I thought I would make my contribution.
I did a sorta long video and posted it to facebook (I'll make something better in the future that isn't so darned long for youtube another day) and I thought I would share.

It more or less has everything in there from Slow start, casual neighborhood driving, screeching start, high revs, ect. I thought it would be a nice full experience. This was taken with my GoPro that I slapped to my rear bumper. Like I said, I'll probably make something nicer in the future. But for now enjoy 11 minutes of COBB noises. (you can also hear my Boomba BOV adapter.)

I am super interested in the fswerks cat back system. It looks awesome and is made out of T304. Wondering why it is not more popular? Too good to be true? Debating between fswerks and cobb, fswerks is 200 bucks cheaper and looks great.

I have had my FSWERKS since 11/2013. Solid great sound good price, can't go wrong with it. Same configuration as the COBB but cheaper, it's not polished as nice but the welds are well done.

So I'm going to buy Cobb's cat back in the spring. Am I right about hearing you have to cut the stock to put a new one on?

Yes, unless you want to pull the entire rear suspension to get the stuff out of the way ;-)

Yeah I appreciate it. You end up cutting yours?
Oh yeah, then took the whole factory system to the dumpster, lol. It was too bulky to keep in my garage and not worth trying to sell, package and ship as I don't have a truck or trailer to transport it.

That actually sounds like a good idea. Ha.

You cut it right by the rear suspension. You could always reinstall the factory stuff....you would just need a clamp.
