I did my headlight swap this weekend and installed my hids into the wagon. Replaced the grill with an all black billet and removed the fender stripes. I'm finally done with the exterior...now I can move on to the motor. Atlsilverss-get them depos man...they are worth it! I installed led switchbacks in the turn signals so no more amber except when turning.

oh hey! i just figured you didnt care about the performance aspect or somethin, most guys ive seen with SS's dont care. a guy that works at the airport with me as either an 06 or 07 Supercharged balt and he couldn't care less.

Oh, when i saw ya a few months ago i had the regular ole m62 supercharger on there, now its got the TVS on it!

when i realized you had your daughter in the car i figured / hoped you wouldn't wanna race. if it was just you i might have egged ya on to get on the throttle a bit. i have yet to see the turbo balts run.

yeah man, i was short on time and with the little one in the car i had to fight the urge to play, haha. if she wasn't in there, i def would have gone. now i need some tires. i'm thinking of getting the Nitto Neo Gen's. has anyone tried/heard anything bad about these? i've read a bunch of good stuff about them.

i have sumitomo's on the front and Falken's on the back. im pretty impressed with the sumitomos. they hold very well with the tvs. only time they have broken loose was when i was shifting "spiritedly" and gave it a bit too much gas between shifts.

I started with the exterior mods since the 2.4 on these wagons don't like the bolt-ons much...figured I wouldn't waste my money on simple intakes and exhaust...saving up for a supercharger upgrade! I've got the wagon dropped on Canucks but I'm not 100% satisfied so I'm going to add a rear sway bar and eventually add coilovers...but for now I'm good with what I've got. I'd love to get together with some of you guys one weekend so keep me in mind for meets...I'll try my best to check the thread to see when and where you guys are meeting up.

I haven't started looking yet because I literally just finished my exterior over the weekend so I've honestly got to start to researching and shopping. My wagon is still under warranty too so I want to wait until that is gone before doing the upgrade...I've only got 18k miles on it so it'll be a year or two before I do the upgrade so I've got plenty of time. I'll end up doing the coilovers and interior before I get around to the motor.

i'm going to try the federal ss-595. i've seen some good things about them.

i'm about to get something go fast for my car. what do you guys think would be the best bang? K&N SRI, a charger pipe or a downpipe? i have about 300 to spend right now. i'm stock other than a drop in k&n. i'm leaning towards the SRI and getting it tuned.
whaddya say?

get a downpipe...catless if you can run with the emissions crap here in atl. then i can help you get hptuned. be slightly more than 300 but not much. either way it is cheaper than a sri plus a tune and will get you more power.

if i lived in KY i would have my car towed to your place with a nice note attached to it. and possibly lit on fire lol. i gotta stop by and get a ratcheting wrench today. should make the job much easier. at least that's what im hoping for. on a plus side i did get a brand new starter for 80 bucks!! not sure how good the quality is, but its 100 bucks less than what Autozone wanted.
