I am thinking about getting the same Catback Exhaust that you have with a JWT Popcharger.

You might need the x pipe with 2.25" inlets/outlets, I can't remember of the top of my head.
Have you done this yet?? How do you like the sound of your exhaust before and after?

BTW... In the picture above, I am lowered with a Eibach Pro Kit. I did the Springmount Mod and have my rear camber arm set to -2.

eeh. from what I've seen when I looked it up the Godspeed camber arms perform decently and hold up well. worst case I'm out 160 bucks if they suck. then I will just buy spc rear arms and Megan fronts.

I believe there are a few pics of folded rear Godspeed arms on here. Absolute and total junk, I wouldnt even run a shift **** from them in fear of it failing.

No 1 or the other.. oem spoiler would have looked better but since you've added that already then just keep that..

Now you just need the "Sponsored by EBay" decal

I'm happy with it. I also think the roof spoiler looks better than OEM if I just have one spoiler. also I am probably gonna be ditching this exhaust for either agency power or Megan racing single next spring or summer.
