Thx
J2 ENGINEERING exhaust catback plus catless downpipe only 420 shipped from redline360.com I have the single tip set up and sounds amazing. Best bang for your buck. Its all ss pipe too so looks nice.

radium catch can installed!

My hoses came in today so I mounted my catch can and pluged in the hoses. Now I want to get on the throttle and see how well it catches blow by.

Agreed, as for intake id just order the avo
Intake tube and do a works drop in. Its cheaper and will give same or better results then the others. The money saved could go to a tune or header. Just my 2 cents.

Anyone want to buy a pair of 20mm spacers? I bought them for my fronts, but they will not work with my wheels. Shoot me a PM if you're interested. I'll probably sell my 25mm rear spacers as well if you would want the set. $100 for the set of 4.

The whiteline camber arms wouldn't have fixed my toe issue. I'm iffy about spending whiteline money for just rear toe arms when all the options are built about the same and function identically. We'll see. Might stick with GT Spec like my LCAs.

Ya. Just do drop in filter and modify j tube or buy avo silicone jtube. Thats what I had and work just as good as any aftermarket setup. I just went ahead though and bought the trd intake. It was over priced and flows just as good as my modified intake but I just wanted to have the TRD Intake just to have it. Lol but just doing a little mod to the stock airbox is all it needs. I have extra j tubes I made if anyone interested in one, then all you need is high flow drop in filter

I ordered a set of S Tech's for $177 shipped from Import Dynamics. They are a company in Porto Rico, but their warehouse is in Pennsylvania. Communication from the company has been excellent. I had tracking info within a couple hours. They get here Friday.

I figure, I'll run the stock shocks till they go and then upgrade to koni yellows and HCT camber top hats from TIC in the future.
