So, I've been looking vigorously for this answer... I decided to give the car a ride height adjustment. I went with mango springs. I know they are no name but hear me out!!! They claimed damn near equal spring rates to oem and were supposed to provide 1.3" rear drop and 1" front drop. I planned on adding bigger sway bars as well, but I've been stopped on any amount of progress. The springs were falsely advertised and are closer to 2" front and 2" rear drop. I was looking into coil isolaters to regain a pinch of ride height. I truly only need about a half inch in order to clear the inner fender wells under aggressive Corning. I don't see wear in the tires after 100 miles, but I see I direct contact patch about 4 inches long at the top of the fender well.
I scrape on everything now. I can't get in my driveway without scraping plastics or metal. I want this car to be a lean, mean, grocery getting machine.
It has performance rotors and pads, a cold air intake, and I built an exhaust from all mandrill bent 3" exhaust. I chose a turbo style Thrush muffler and a custom X-pipe because of noise reasons... Making it a sleeper of sorts. If anyone has input as to wear to purchase or a relatively inexpensive alternative I am all ears.

Please take note, I've been working on cars since I was 5 with my father. I'm not asking for a how to here... Just some advice from those that have been around g's longer than I have.

Thanks guys!
Chris

 

Found this thread while looking for exhaust setups, Hopefully you're still able to get on here. I'm interested in what your exhaust sounds like. I've been looking at swapping in a pair of thrush turbo mufflers, but i likely wouldn't be doing a full custom setup, just cutting the old mufflers out and welding the new ones in. If you have a video that would be great, thanks.
