I just found this post. If you see this, what do you like about it better than ONR? I've been happy using ONR for several years but I'm always open to new stuff.

I actually don't like ONR at all. Griot's makes a spray on Car Wash that's MUCH better. No buckets either!

Hey all,
About to pull the trigger on some ISC coilovers and was wondering if any of you had a shop you recommended or know that does solid work anywhere in the greater KC area. I do not have the tools nor the amount of knowledge to feel comfortable pulling this off myself.

Thanks

meh am not a huge fan of revline...

Anon, do you have stock coils currently or do you have aftermarket...if you have aftermarket coils, we can do the install in my garage, if you have stock coils, I would either suggest you to take the RSB off and I can help you with the install OR go to a shop (Revline/etc)



Yes, Brandon you heard right, I want to boost but am not sure yet...the TL is not the right platform, I dont want it to be an expensive deal, I dont want to blow my engine and then rebuild...so not sure yet, but definitely in the thought process
