Looks sexy as hell man!! Back is a tiny bit to low for my liking but that is the beauty of coilovers!!

ya im kinda thinking the same....... i can decide if i want to drop the front down a tad more or raise the back up a tad lol it wasnt as low as it is now when i first put them on so i think ill wait a little longer to see if it settles any more before screwing with it any LOL


some pics from yesterday after black boxing her.............








and i also tore apart the main wireing harness coming out from inside to re arange the wireing and clean it up some now that the battery is moved to the trunkit doesnt need to be all the way over by the engine lol

Looks pretty good, but I think the rear needs to come up a little bit.

idk in this case pretty sure its the way i have them adjusted cuz it comes out of the box way too low for my liking so i had to adjust them up some............should all be even tomorrow after i readjust them now that they are broke in.....

i bring to you...........the FIRST upper intake manifold upgrade for the LY7 over here in the states that doesnt cost $1900 like the CPR6 manifold from australia........this is only the first version a revision is gonna be made that will make it better flowing/ less boxy and turbulent than this one but this version already shows a major gain in top end power and so far havnet oarticularly noticed any loss in low end power..........hopefully gettin on the dyno sometime this week to get #s and AFRs but i havent ever had my car dynoed so i wont have anything to compare to unless i run this one then change back to the stock setup for a few runs....... this thing works great, no check engine light for anything but the missing MAF sensor as the stock one wont fit anywhere without doing a fender well intake, and i cant use the cartridge MAF untill i get my tune corrected for it......but its not running lean or rich no miss fires its not pulling timing...the dashhawk is showing the AFR to be where it should, all is great......

heres some pics
