Nice, Did he need the crossover? Wish I could have stopped by but I had to readjust my HKS because after I installed the resonated mid pipe it was melting the shroud. Good thing I had an extra drivers side shroud around The single resonated pipe quieted things down a bit but she is still a bit on the loud side.

No the bazooka itself has a built in crossover. The electronic one has a remote bass volume control and outputs to later add an amp to run hi/mid range speakers with their own amp.

if you wanted just the bass remote volume control get ther following convertor...it is also the Line Out Convertor..

or this one to leave the add on option for hi/mids

Yep, great coilovers. I took my time but the install went smooth. Awesoem set of coilovers and got to meet two nice new members. Tbk came by to lend a hand and speed up the process. traingleman's car set at half ride height is almost as low as tbk's. I cannot imagine setting the Bilsteins at full low.

Its only a matter of time before TBK airbags it lol.

I use to have NOSS, the last time I used it the welds broke on my intake manifold and my floor boards blew off.

Spraying is cheating. :P

Was hoping to get a package in by this weekend but it wont make it till Monday... how disappointing!

Probably have time to stop by for a bit this weekend... At least it'll be cooler than typical summer temperatures.
