    I haven't paid yet. But the way I figured it after going to local parts store id be saving money this way. Even if I dont mail the core back it's still cheaper. Only thing I didn't take into account yet is shipping. Tomorrow I'll add in the shipping and see if its cheaper. I just meed to get these dang things fixed before I go home next

    yea i just looked and if i buy local it would be almost 100 bucks more and thats with the core returned. thanks for the advice though but 550 is what i have saved just for the car cause i try and limit it each month and thats what id like to keep it under. Only other thing i have is installing this thing. Ive been putting it off for awhile now and just getting fed up with it

    Retailmenot.com search advance auto parts. Go online and shop..split up the order were necessary and pick up in store. It'll save you quick a bit. Now the stuff that they don't have available in store get through rockauto or have shipped.

    Easy peazy!

    Any better place to put the catch can seems odd being right there.

    And Rockauto tends to shop from several different locations so you'll have multiple packages and different things arriving at different times.

    After these few fixes I don't plan to do any other mods or adds. Ive also got new msd wires and ngk tr6ix plugs to put in it. And I've got a set of ecm / tcm that I'm sending to overkill to retune. He's tuned em before but for an 08

    Welcome to the world of a GXP lol mods are expensive. Maintenance is expensive. Fix it and drive it till it blows up.

    Guess what came in today!





    Now I just need to send the ecm back to will to swap for an 06 ecm and refine for 93 octane and completely remove DoD. Gonna be exciting. I gotta test and see if the TCM is compatible with my car as it came from an 08 gxp and 06 are jerks

    I doubt in the end I'll ever lower it. Im gonna have the Balistine struts at least rebuilt and put new mounts and all in. But I think it low enough and there several places on base now I have to drive weekly so if I did id have to change routes. I can deal with the wheel gap
