You're running lean with those mods, but as long as you keep the car out of the upper rev band you should be OK. If you drive it hard like I do, you run the risk of causing ping and detonation which can damage your motor. I highly suggest you spend the $600 and get the Osiris tune from Uprev. It'll fix your A/F ratio among all the other benefits it offers. You'll also get the max HP possible by tying all of your mods together, maybe as much as a 15-20 HP gain over stock.

Make sure your upper strut mount bolts are really tight to start. I have a noise that occurs when the car is still and I turned the wheel to back out of a space. It's a low level pop/clank. It's my inner and outer tie rods. Ordered the parts for both sides yesterday. There's a DIY on here if you're unsure of what I'm mentioning.

Cheked every thing yesterday and everthing looks good, but the passenger side is still falling too hard on pot holes, on the highway it feels great though.
Could it be the shocks.

Yeah after owning my car for 6 1/2 years I'm still learning something new about it every now and then. I guess I wasn't learning fast enough lol.

Most likely blew your struts/shocks. OEM's don't last long when paired with springs that have higher rates than your stock springs. What springs are you running btw? You may want to look into Tokico Dspecs or coilovers...

Lol, sorry bud! I thought you were the guy with the noise after lowering spring install! Did you go with oem bushings or aftermarkets like whiteline? Ive heard the all metal bushings from some manufacturers get rid of the annoying squeak but can make the ride a little harsh...
