And although it did sound really good, it still had a bit too much drone for me at highway speeds. Might have been better in a car with 7AT, but in mine with a 5AT I'm running well over 3K RPM's on the highway and that set-up droned a bit too much for my tastes.

Mine is the stock midpipe. Just vibrant resonators and tanabe axleback. There's no drone at highway speeds and only a little bit (and by little, I mean you don't even notice it unless you're listening for it) when you're hovering around 1800 RPM continuously (7AT)

Put my DD tail as turns in today. I wish all mods were this easy. I'm pretty sure ya'll don't need another video of what these do.

I had mine welded onto the Y pipe. But this was also on my Stillen cbe where Stillen had their resonators on the mid pipe so it left plenty of room. I'd say if your still having that drone to get the 18" resonators and have them replace the Invidia ones as it appears theres plenty of room.

I picked up a used K&N SRI. It needed a little TLC so I took care of that today.

Yeah, I actually thought about doing that but I've already swapped exhaust, so this system is no longer on the car.

Spoiler is on. Fitment wasn't amazing, but not bad for the price. Also cleaned the engine bay again.

Very nice! At first, I thought your rear bumper was bare polyurethane/not painted.... then I realized that it's just dirty on another note, black is the best color to go with the spoiler since it blends in better and makes it look like part of the trunk itself.

Is that an OEM spoiler or an after market? If aftermarket what brand/style and how much? I hate the little chrome spoiler on our sedans. I'm going to wrap it until I find a decent deal on a replacement spoiler.

My wife is running a race in Orlando tomorrow so I'm playing babysitter with my two girls tonight. This could be a good opportunity to get the girls to see some cool cars with daddy.

Installed Stillen gen 3 CAI and grounding kit. stillen cross drilled and slotted rotors, stillen matrix pads, good ridge ss brake lines. hotchkis sway bars F&R, and cusco strut bar. It was a great day.... till i found out my brake pedal and steering wheel have a vibration while on the brakes in drive. Could the grounding kit cause the vibrations?
