Default *PICS* Before and after Strano springs, Konis

Well after a nice round of mods here are some before and after pics. I added the WS-6 Ram Air hood, blackbird stripes, Front bird decal, Rear Pontiac decal, !side emblems, Strano springs, Koni 4/3 SA shocks, UMI adjustable LCA's, QTP ORY w/ true merge, Magnaflow catback.

I haven't had a chance to drive the car much. I will post road results in another post. Appearance wise it looks great lowered. The QTP ORY w/ the true merge has a 4" outlet of the y-merge part. That is probably the lowest part of the car. My friend told me "welcome to the world of a lowered sports car with long tubes and 3" exhaust". When driving now, I have to be careful. Just driving the car home I noticed how responsive the suspension was. The car stayed level through turns, the car didnt sway front or back under acceleration/deceleration.

The pics aren't the greatest but when I get some time I will do a nicer photoshoot. Enjoy the pics!
