Anything else done to the exhaust setup? I'm thinking about getting the Spec-L once i get my Tomei UEL but i'm not sure how loud it'll be as far as cold starts and neighbors lol

I have the old OpenFlash UEL catless header, oem over pipe and front pipe. It's not too loud. My tune does have a reduced cold start idle so I can't speak for that particular portion. Here is what she sounds like at full tilt, microphone is attached at the rear license plate. |

Thanks! Yeah, that run just barely edged me into 3rd PAX out of 75ish drivers, many of which are very talented and very fast. Plus the car felt great all day with real nice controllable mid-corner on throttle rotation.

Manicci mats and new sills/scuffs from Subispeed.
Not 100% sure how I feel about the Aero Fins... Renegade Motorsports cap kit to rid the bay of all the yellow caps, APR shroud, and some Cusco fanboi bits and pieces. Swapped the Sachs/Eibach out with the CSG Tein FLA kit. Also installed the ARP OEM length studs. CSGs come with very little, if any, adjustments needed. I did two rounds of minute tweaking at each corner based on my weight etc. and had Street Automotive in Reno take over for the final fine tuning of camber/caster/et al and alignment.
