Thanks DE. We pulled the trigger and bought a Borla "S" type rear kit thru Borla online. What's another $800.00??? I found a couple of YouTube videos where the Camaro had a cam, ARH, and a Borla exhaust. I really liked how it sounded...deep and throaty. We went with S type since it's not as aggressive as the ATAK. Hopefully they have it in stock. I can't wait to put them on!

I'm sure you'll love the S-type. I was on the fence between that and the touring exhaust. That Atak is just too loud for my taste. However, a lot of guys love it. My Mom would have said "that's why they make chocolate and vanilla."

Let me know how it goes.

While, I'm yappin' I'll also mention that I got a note from Showstoppers today and he painted my calipers over the weekend. I should get them this week. I'll call IPS Motorsports tomorrow to let them know they will be doing my brakes this week.
I think we will love it too. I can't wait to see your brake set up. It's going to be stunning! I love that blue color you picked out.

I was looking at wheels last night (shhh, don't tell hubby)...lol. But in the future, I want to get some chrome wheels or highly polished aluminum ones. Then we will have to do what you have done (replace the rotors and get the calipers painted). Maybe next year. Our daughter needs braces first. We are done with modding the car for now.

Cool, because that is what we want. Here is a clip of a car with a cam and Borla exhaust that helped us make our decision to switch:



His car is sweet!

All look GREAT.

I leave tomorrow for 10 days. Nobnoster Missouri.

I am at your disposal if you happen to still be waiting to put them on when I get back.

Here are some vids we took today outside of Darin's work today. He took a couple of his coworkers for a little ride.

I think Jr has BMR's. I'll be investing in suspension upgrades soon but haven't decided which brands yet. I'm sure they're all good.

Glad you're considering all your suspension options while looking at power upgrades, like Z_Rocks told you in the other thread, all these upgrades will add up when you consider how much power you are going to add to the car.

I have the trailing arms, toe bars and outer trailing arm bushings. They are more rigid and not prone to bending/twisting like the OEM ones. Note the difference:

Toe bar:



Trailing arm:



And they look cool:




They will improve your launch, helps put power to the pavement. I like them, they are cheap and simple to install, though I am sure you'd pay to have them put on.

Pfadt,are just too radicle for me. I don't care what they say.

BMR has the same looking adjustable trailing arm as the Spohn.

Nobnoster... real place... Whiteman AFB is there, small town about 1 hr 15 mins outside of KC.
