I have a Mitsubishi Galant 2009 ES. So far I've put in a Weapon R cold air intake and a JET PERFORMANCE V-FORCE PLUS MODULE. Right now I'm not looking into any forced induction but it's not completely out of the question.

Does anyone know of a good lowering kit for my vehicle?

What do you guys think? Also does anybody have good advice about what I should do next in terms of stuff to do my vehicle?

I'm not sure if D2 makes coilovers for the 9G.

Pretty sure the intake is a short ram intake and not CAI. I don't think WR makes a CAI for our car, only short ram.

As for lowering... http://www.worksevo.com/

When it comes to things to do next on your car, the choice is yours and just depends on where you wanna go with the overall project. But if you're thinking performance, I'd start working on an exhaust and some headers.

Yes, that short ram intake will work. It's gotten some good reviews, but Weapon-R got alot of bad reviews in general for their dragon model. Personally if I were you I'd spend the extra money and get an Injen. It can be converted from a cold air to a short ram if that's you're thing depending on the weather.

I can't say anything bad about weapon-r either, I'm just reiterating the majority of comments regarding the dragon intake they make being crappy. Althought I've heard good things about the secret weapon. I was going to get the secret weapon but I decided to shell out a few extra bucks for the Injen so I can use it as both cold air and short ram.

Anything I do with the suspension will be later. I'll probably end up getting the works springs and bump stops and rear sway bar more than likely. Along with some Momo wheels.

I'll be getting a custom exhaust done this coming week.
