I already emailed SamStrano for suspention parts. now i just have the standerd stuff but it has headers dont know what kind. so its the cat delite pipe and a cat back exhaust. it does have the factory duel exhaust. the car goes fine for me but just want a bit more punch and for it to handle better

thank you. for me several reasons for the v-6 i have a CDL and had a 03 subaru impreza. needless to say raced it and alot of tickets. i am much older now and dont realy need to show off but enjoy a well handling car that moves good. the ls1 is a very good motor. but stock the ls1 and 231 has only 70 hp diffrence. but i know the ls1 has huge potental. driving wise just kids in mustangs around here and the v-6 with an auto can be smoked easy. as far with the civic ricers well most put intake and muffler. so they gain 5-15 hp but add a lot of weight.
