I regret buying the TOMs kit. These bastards at TOMs USA have their heads up their asses . No eta, just hurry up and wait. ModInJapan can do nothing other than wait too. Total BS. I should return all the stuff and get the tune and headers . Spend thousands on parts and pay the parts of before they arrive. Something wrong with this picture

Any buddy put stickier/bigger tires on the car and regret it? I put tires with too much grip on my last car and it stopped being entertaining. I get a giggle from chirping the tires.

Will I still be able to get that 2nd gear chirp. I assume I will still be able to get a little sideways given the weight when I want to step the back end out for a little fun.

Its been like Christmas week or something and I just found a new personality of her's. I was ready to go with the mufflers back on even though I loved the sound of the exhaust.

I guess my first crush bend dual exhaust system that I had done back in 2008 when I only had a hundred miles on my F. But, that system was thrown out years ago. That's really the only thing. I tend to be overly think things, and never make impulse purchases. And when I decide it's something I really want, I spend another couple of days rethinking my decision. Though slow, it has worked out well for me.

I was surprised at the comment about the Borla exhaust system, but I kind of agree. From the first moment I installed it I kind of thought, "wow, this thing is loud".
However it is one of the few things that really does add power to the IS F. It is also good almost for ever and is really a pretty quality exhaust system. I have gotten used to the drone and if I took it off I would probably be unhappy.
Now the front lower suspension bushings, (Mine are from Figs) are a super good idea and every car should have them. I have two LS 430's and will, as needed, install them on those cars also.
