Mods when doing exhaust?

[Viperi]

Hey guys im close to the finishing stages of buying parts to install nismo headers and nismo cat back system with oem cats. Any recommended mods i could add when im down there? i dont really want to deal with drone sound from test pipes so im staying away from those and sticking to oems unless theres some proven to work without drone and is legal for inspection.

How about some gt spec braces or a tow hitch if you need one?

Sway bar bushings are the only maintenance item I can think of that's more convenient while up on a lift. One thing I wish i had done when I installed my headers is to replace the header mounting hardware. I did use new nuts but retained the exiting studs.

Maybe taking of ur rear sway bar and selling it to me dirt cheap

Because they're cheap and once you have the headers off it's a 5min job.

I have a Curt hitch (from JC Whitney), but I don't have the wiring kit... The dealer wanted to charge me $600 for it, so I politely told the kiss my arse!

A supercharger should drown out any slight drone/rasp from the exhaust. Just make sure you're at WOT all the time. :good:

Ah, gotta love the IS community and its suggestions. Okay so for we have on your to do list: more GTSPEC braces, BBK, Transgo, coils. I'm going to suggest....new wheels!
