Naw I rode in Racesnos' car with his Megan coils and I didnt like the ride quality at all, and it was at the softest. Im cool with the Teins/AGX's.

[4g63lover]

good shit son!

I love how that grille turned out, I might go buy another one at a junkyard and experiment a little. Especially since my Zenki is falling apart lately.

Thx, but the grille is no longer with us :( It was demolished in my recent fender bender. I loved it too, bcz I did it by myself.

[4g63lover]

yeah. sorry about that man.

[IVORY_G]

yeah. sorry about that man.

No worries.

[spdracr]

Yup thats the plan already, the gap under the heads started to really urk me.

[DFX]

how does the stock intake piping compare to aftermarket piping?

[IVORY_G]

I keep it stock bcz it resists heat more as compared to the aftermarket pipes, which are made out of aluminum & retain heat but look "nice & shiny".

[wright06jhs]

Great job! Looks fantastic from where it started.

ah. good point. but i meant how do they compare sound and performance wise?

[4g63lover]

ah. good point. but i meant how do they compare sound and performance wise?

I would think the stock one is more restrictive than aftermarket ones due to the silencer box the stock one has right before the TB.

BTW Ivory, I really love how the car progressed. The chrome pillars were eh. But now I see they are gone and let me say, GOOD CHOICE!!!

[DJ_Devistatix]

damn that galant is blinging..hahaha..i love the chrome!
