Basically going to keep my hopes up and not lower my excitement to see the finished product. Granted I don't even know who XXR or Megan racing is but who knows. They might have decent products. The XXR's in their 18" 9.5J trim weigh 21 pounds each which is the same as everyone of Gram lights products. I would have went Volk because they make an 18" wheel that is only 15 lbs each but that is just my way of wanting less weight. That is for the future. I have no idea about the XXR strength also so I guess we will see later when I get back how they handle on the track with rigidity and flex. As for the Megan Racing coil overs they are 32 way adjustable but that is pretty much all I know. They do have some applications on some other drift cars. I want to see how they do on the circuit. Spring rate seems right if you go to their webpage. The dampening is easily adjustable. Just gotta find my happy setting depending on the track I go to. Takeda is a good intake but the amount of RPMs you have to hit in order to see a gain is 6530+. Takeda does not increase lower RPM hp or torque which is what is sorely needed in the FR-S per reviews. I think there were like one or two intakes on the market today that actually increase low end hp and torque. As for the exhaust I honestly have no idea who makes it. Trying to get the Marine that has been taking the pictures for me over there to look at the exhaust again. I am willing to bet it is also Megan Racing just because WCC works out combo deal with manufacturers for a better price. All I know it that it sounds good and I like the stance. The blacked out tail lights give it a nice touch also. Not that I really care about cosmetics but it is a nice touch. No one sees any hidden TV's in any of the pictures right? lol.
