I have the parts (LCA's, PHB, and thinking about rear roush springs) and yes I am still at stock ride height....many think I am lowered because of the bodykit but that is not the case. The car sits nicely at this point but my traction has suffered since FI....

MMMMMMM That's what thought you said. Well I'm jut going to have to sit down and right out pros and cons of both side exhaust and straight out exhaust. Not going to be easy I'm sure. Thanks for sharing you advise.

Haven't been on in a while But must agree with MyGT500. The Cervinis side exhaust is the stuff. Love it.
Would you believe I bought the car in Dec 06 and now we are in April 09 and only have 4353 miles on this car. I wish I had more time to drive it. Still deciding on Rims and suspention stuff. ( just waiting for work to pick up) As for rims, I am going to stay with 18"s and Will probably lower the car at some point. Here is a link to my photobucket pictures and Dyno tuning.

Hey mygt500 when you had the exhaust kit put on do you by any chance know if i'll need some extra exhaust tube to make it fit. In other words the side exhaust part that comes with the kit does fit right up to the x-pipe or did they have to bridge the pieces betwen the side pipes and the x-pipes. I'm thinking of getting just the side exhaust kit only, it's the same thing you have but just with the side exhuast and rails. I was wanting to know if you could look under yours and see if a patch was thrown in to complete the system. Thanks for your help,

p.S
It's your fault that i'm going to be dropping the money on this. LOL, at least that's what I'm telling the wife. Thanks again.

I will check today and see if I can get pics to show what your talking about from the front to back or actually sides!

The exhaust comes with everything you need to bolt right up to the mid-pipe. Theres a straight piece with the muffler on it, then the next piece is already bent with the hangar attached to it that goes from muffler to the side, and then the tip clamps onto that.

I'm having the kit put on my car right now and can't wait to get it back. I'll definately need to get to new rims after that though.

mygt500- what size tires do you recommend for 20" rims. My car is my DD and lowered 1 inch on Steeda springs already so I want something fat to raise it up some for clearance. I can't remember who it was on here that has the side exhaust with 20s and is about to get some really tall tires...

war machine 115 it is mygt500 that is wanting taller tires. I'm going to try keeping my 18" rims that I have and my tires are taller than low pro's. I'm going to try changing my struts to adjustable ones and keeping my stock springs, so I can make it softer or hard depending on how my car rides. I might have to go to taller tires but we'll see. I still want to be able to drive my car fast and not be afraid all the time of breaking something.

Pics of exhaust tomorrow afternoon! and yes I need a taller side wall for the 20's as I am actually running a smaller tire then stock?(dumb I know-if I knew then what I know now!) Anyway get 275-295/40/20's in the back (28.62+ size tires) and in the front at least 245/40/20 or 255/35/20 and you should be set. Go to the tire website that you choose for tires and see what the manufacturer sizes are for the brand you choose as they do vary a bit. Pick your back tires first (esp if staggered) and match the fronts as best you can to the height (tire height) of the back ones or a tad smaller (I would go no more then a 1/2 inch difference)

What brand tires are you planning on getting?

I'm looking for something that'd be good for a DD. I don't plan to take the car to the track much if at all so I don't need the best grip. I just want something that will last moderately long and still grip good.

Either Nitto, BFGoodrich, or Toyo's

Niito Invo's- great on everything for a DD
245/40/20 front (27.76 inches tall)
295/35/20 back (28.11 inches tall)
0.35 inches difference between front and back

If I get the same tread pattern (not for a DD and weather below 40 deg)
BFGoodrich KDW2's the new tread pattern
265/35/20 27.3 inches tall
275/35/20 27.6 inches tall

0.3 inch difference between the 2

toyo proxes S/T tires
255/40/20 (28 inches tall)
275/40/20 (28.6 inches tall)

0.6 inches difference
I will most likely get the INVO's
