Default ~~New Mods!!~~

so i finally decided to get my exhaust done (magnaflow 14829's w/ 2.25 crush bent piping). also are some pictures of my otto-r racing strut bar (works awesome and i can tell a difference, but im sure my brand new LCAs help) from luxurymods.com and their white LED interior kit. i will get a clip of me driving off later tonight when im with my buddies. pics are out of order, sorry, enjoy!

looks great nick! You kept your resonators and did 2.25" piping from there?

I just installed my Magnaflows also today...2.5" from cat straight to the exhausts. It gets pretty loud from 1700-2500 rpm. Love the sound but I think it might be too much for me. Maybe I'll go with your set-up Plus those morons at the muffler shop installed them at an angle so I need to get them redone.

Looking good there bro

Nick, I think you have to rotate the bulb so that its brightest point is facing downwards for the dome, i had the same thing happen to me

thanks guys for all the comments! i feel like its finally coming together, with this being my first and rather biggest mod yet lol. im gonna wait till the luxurymods.com tail lights come out then i will go from there and see what i want to do. the dome light lights the whole car at night, the pics were takin at sunset so it looks dim. i cant wait to do more modding but getting money is the problem. with school starting back up soon i wont be working as much so it gets tougher.

bummer! yeah i like the way mine sounds so i think im gonna leave it for now and eventually get some headers. if i want it louder the shop said i can come back whenever and i can get the resonators taken off.
