After you get it installed I'm willing to bet that you'll spend the next 15 minutes tuning through the gears since you can't drive it. Lol

Koni Yellows shipped from MI.

Swift springs shipped from CA.

If everything gets here, I'll be installing them this weekend

Looks good Rochester! Wish there was an option like that for us 7AT guys. Yeah, I'd be rowing through the gears as well!

Nice! You'll have to let me know how you like the Swift/Koni Yellow setup. I've been contemplating that myself for a while. Interested in how your alignment fairs and if you need a camber kit.

Think you could get one of your kids to sit in the back seat and do this for you?

I'm thinking positive. Swift claims 97% of Gs or something absurd like that don't need camber kits. Fingers crossed.

Shocks are scheduled to get here tomorrow, springs Friday. Now I just need to finish convincing the spousal unit that I need to install them this weekend. Suppose to be a cool front too--mid/high 70s and rainy, perfect wrenching weather

You and me both. In about 4 months, I'll be putting the snows back on the car, and will certainly have an opinion about even/uneven tire wear at that time.

So yeah, fingers crossed.

B2 Auto Designs gave me the best price--I think they are a vendor here. I hit them up on the 370 board because I had been unsuccessfully trolling for a used set. They were $10-100 cheaper than the other quotes.

Tire Rack is advertising 25% off thru 08/31, so I think its an promotional period

Got the FI catback installed yesterday, it sounded perfect with the 18" resonators. Not nearly as loud as I expected which is good because I plan on going with test pipes or lth down the road. Fitment was beyond perfect, the shop got the sways and cbe done in less than 2hrs. FI did the small things like proper exhaust gaskets and spacers for the middle crossbar. Zero drone, very deep sounding. Hopefully no leaks arise in the next few weeks.
