woohoo...

badazzzz...

 

I dont know which is better. Having a friend who has the exact same car/color as you do or not. Hmmm.

Nice pics and comparison. Even though the modded TLS looks a little better. There is no much any differences between the two. Maybe install a spoiler and an underbodykit should definitely distinguish the two.

I am absolutely amazed at the difference a 1.5" drop makes. Springs are in my future!

 

Hey Closer ..

When are you two gunna have a friendly drag race to see what difference the intake/headers/exhaust/springs made in your 1/4-mile performance?

 

We raced a bit on the freeway, about 5-6 times. Atleast at freeway speeds... who ever hit the gas first won. The 2nd car to gas it would never catch up... usually lose ground.

If he got the initial jump, He'd very slowly pull away. If I got the initial jump, I pulled a bit faster on him... but the 2 were very very close.

So no noticable difference in having the headers once you're rolling. We haven't tried from a stop yet though.

Handling... no comparison. I can easily our corner, out accelerate out of turns and stop him. The difference is clearly night and day. Through the twisties I would give him room on the straights and then catch him in mid turn. Ofcourse I trade overall ride comfort. I'm sure most the people with TL-Ps or some TL-S would find my ride too rough. Just about perfect for me though.

The difference from the front is incredible!! From the back it's not that much. It definately looks a lot meaner from the front after it's lowered. Great pic Closer!!

It's not that much of a difference. But with a bodykit, it will definitely stand out more.
BTW, nice pics!

TLS #1= stock
TLS #2= comptech springs, headers, filter, wheels






Notice the big difference in front drop to rear drop?

 

Nice pics, I didn't think that the difference would be that noticable being it was such a small drop.

 

It's actually a much bigger drop than advertised. Comptech says 1-1.5, but ended up being closer to 2.5.

Fall City, Wa. 30 min east of Seattle.

AT Italia S5 18".

 

Where or who can some one order those rims from? And do you have a side pic to display?

Nice car BTW. I would like to lower mine but, like you said it's not an 1-1.5 inch drop. It's 2-2.5, and I don't think I want to go that low.

 

i like the picture of the neighborhood though, what city/state is it?
