Mods in sig.

I don't regret any of them so far. I slightly regret the Eibach sway bar because it broke, but it was under warranty and I got a new one (with the new design) so everything is fine.

He's got a 2007 it looks like, so it'd be a SS/SC, and those are louder in general. If he was talking about the SS/TC, then I'd agree with y'all.

its alot of work to take that damn header off. send it back and my car be down for a week

we shouldnt have to worry about this stuff. headers should be surfaced before sent out so it sucks i have to go thru the inconvenience. oh well i guess thats what happens when you mod. its all in the game haha

The pain in the ass and stupidity of halo/projector headlights.. both sets. Waste of money and thought they wouldn't be as ricey as they are.. halos and LEDs disconnected. Shorty antenna that only picks up one station. Sucked when my ipod broke.. now it doesn't matter lol

A Remflex gasket will solve that.

Does buying the car count? I should have gotten an Impreza WRX (not the hatchback) or a Lancer Ralliart (ther newer ones that are turbo & AWD)...

I don't really regret any of my mods...but if I could go back...I probably would have gotten a different clutch setup. This Exedy Hypersingle is great because it holds my power and is more than enough for my future plans...but a Ceramic 6 puck isn't exactly the most fun thing to daily drive on...so to those considering the Hypersingle, it's great and the lightweight flywheel revs freely...it's just kind of annoying sometimes since it's so aggressive. I would have gone with a non-puck style Kevlar one instead if I could go back.
