Sick BBK! Not feeling the wheels at all. Drop her & cover up that chrome spoiler and it will look a lot better.

Dang Peyman, coming together nicely now that you got some wheels going one, and nice BBK.
There is no rasp, the tone gets better. I would know

Yeah here man, this is it with test pipes. With HFCs it's the same tone, but little quieter. No rasp!

Were you going from the stock 19" wheels to the Volk's? I would expect an increase in acceleration as well as better brake performance with a wheel change of this kind.

My question is, do you notice an improvement in mpg in city/hwy? The car G I bought has 20" Axxis wheels that weigh about 29lbs and I want to get something in the 20 - 21 lb range and am curious if I will get a mpg bump.

Your car definitely has potential cuz you have some quality parts on the car (ie. Wilwood, Volks, etc). But the theme of the car isn't really consistent right now. You need to decide on a look and mod accordingly. Right now, it looks as if you are just slapping random aftermarket parts on without much plan or goal. Don't get me wrong, it looks pretty decent but taking in account of the amount of $$ you are dropping on these parts, your car can look SO MUCH better IMO.

Drop it asap. Looks like you will need some spacers to push them out once you drop. Add a spoiler and a rear diffuser to finish off the rear. Everything will flow so much better bro.
