The sound actually has a little kick to it now with all the add ons. It sounds pretty much the same in person and video too. I didn't expect the whole combo would affect the exhaust sound. But yeah much aggressive now. Me likey. And I heard that a catback combined with the downpipe would set the sound off soon

i got these on right now. They arent too bright though. Stock lights IMO have better light output than these.

Awesome mods, looks good, sounds good, keep up the good work.
I have the same set up (CTE+TB spacer) but sadly my downpipe will be returned to Mr Heeltoe due to fitment issues (flange a bit small for my 2010)
OBTW >>> TB spacer thermal gasket need to be on the the TB side (metal), its the part that gets hot.

Yeah working on returning mine, i believe the downpipe i received was Mr Heeltoe's prototype pipe, i was thinking of replacing the flange but decided to return it for a refund so i can get a new high flow cat for my CL9. I will do the down pipe for the CU2 later

hahah first of all i need to read what i write "I'm a unconscious" lol second, its just how i am at things. when i want to get things done, i get them done! lol oh well. after these other parts get here that should be a slowing point of modding my car. hopefully.................................
#97
lol. at the rate you're going. you're just going to run out of things to do soon. the aftermarket support for this car is not very strong yet. It looks like its starting to pick up now, just as the tsx is on its way out.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to pick up the Icebox...Did you notice any extra power or anything like that with the Icebox? I also love your wheels! Those are the ones I'm looking at getting. Did you notice and increase in your ride height with the 19's?

thanks man!!! =D although i love to clear my headlights and take off the tint, i need to grow a pair first to pull the trigger. just really dont want to put them in the oven!!!
do it mate. i suggest buying from ebay its much cheaper. in regards to noticing power, i do feel a better pull. the car is revving a lot more freely too. it does say it gives 12 hp. but really cant prove that without any dynos. also, i did install the icebox with a tb spacer and downpipe. so it may be different. for the wheels, i love them. it complements my car's color. theyre simple and nice and not too flashy looking but its getting very common though =) anyways, ronjon has some new wheels coming out this april so you should check that out too. i really cant remember the ride height with stock wheels so i cant really say. hehe didnt pay much attention. but my car needs a drop so bad! saving up for the coils now =) good luck!!!
