Here is a link to the EDFC. Basically it allows you to adjust the setting on the coilovers from inside the car.

Tinted the windows today. 18% on the whole car except the windshield. Tomorrow night the exhaust and wheel spacers go in. Then I get my alignment next week. After that I just had some odds and ends like tail light overlays, grounding kit, strut bar etc. Then I'll get the car tuned and it should be done...for now. Oh yeah, I need to finish my system, but I can do that anytime since I already did my DD Nav, so at least I have some tunes.

If you want a good scissor lift then look at these. They make great lifts and I'll be getting one of their MC lift tables as soon as I pay for some of the stuff I put in my car.

Tonight was another busy night. I did the rear toe bolts since I didn't have a bit at home to ream out the holes last week. Now that that's done I can get my alignment. I also installed my EDFC servos on the rear shocks. Nest week I'll pull the fronts and install them. I wish I new these needed to be installed before first before I put everything together.
I also installed the FI intimidator exhaust. I couldn't believe how easy it went in. They did a great job fitting that exhaust to the car. When you tighten everything up it just fits like a glove. I finished everything at around 12 tonight so I could really get on it, but I took it for a ride and it sounds real nice. At idle you almost can't tell the difference from stock, but once you get on it you can really tell the difference. It's not really loud which is what I wanted, but it has a nice rumble to it. I imagine it will get a little louder once I get some miles on it as well.

In between rain drops I installed my Z-tube and Amsoil air filter today. My tail light overlays arrived today, so now when we get a nice day and I have some time to kill I'll tackle those. I also had the car tinted with 18% tint all around this week. Once we get some nice weather I'll snap some more pics.

It was cake. It took an hour and that was with bull****ting and trying to figure out why MD tells you to do away with a gasket I thought was necessary. I bet I could do it in 30-45 minutes not that I've done it.
