SOOOOOOOOO... Last night, i got home at about 830 and decided that I'll put on my sways (sounds pretty good so far doesn't it). I started with the rear since i heard that its the harder of the two. i got the stock one out in about 10 to 15 min and thought i should think about what stiffness i want before the install so i spent some time thinking about that (still good so far)...... THEN I go to grab the bushings to grease them and the instructions said to grease the 15-16" bushing for the rear.
WELL... one pair had no writing on em and the other said 1 1/8". I said to myself that the 1 1/8 one is probably for the back since its the smaller of the two and that its a typo since there's "no way" they missed up shipping the wrong bushing. after i greased em, i slip on the bushings and they're F'n way toooo big
So i put the old one back again.

Yeah got to check out his Kinetix ssv manifold and true dual stillen exhaust it sounds pretty sweet, he also let me drive the car and test it out to see how I liked the plenum it definitely sounds nice and pulls hard to redline
You back in MN now Janik? lets get together sometime and chillax.

I paid 500 for the front, rear, and right skirt and that included some repair and prepping. On a scale of 10, it's about a 7 job. It's definitely not perfect, but it's not horrible. I'm happy with what I got for the price.

I skipped out of the cruise as well so I can hang out with my daughter, plus it's raining. I saw this cool vid on ourVQ and thought I'd share.
