This past weekend, just for kicks and giggles... I installed the following:
Alta Pulley
Alta Intake
H Sport Springs
Alta 22mm Rear Sway bar
H Sport Camber links (lower rear)
UUC Exhaust
Took myself and a friend 2 days (left for over 3 hours Saturday to watch my sons football game, otherwise only a day and a half).

I will be seeing the folks at Powechips later today for the ECU upgrade.

First off, thanks Randy for the parts, how to's and generally being a nice guy :grin:
Secondly, not all that difficult. It took some occasional creative tool usage (torquing the pulley and changing the camber links...) I am in lust with my car again, I kept running up to the rev limiter at first because I was not used to the car pulling that hard to red-line... first commute this morning over my usual mountain pass was fantastic... the car is responding the way it should have straight from the factory with the exception of the slightly stiffer suspension. Not too stiff for me but may be for others. All this added performance for less than $3,000.00 including shipping.

All I can say to those of you sitting on the fence wondering if you should or should not mod... go for it. You will not be sorry!

See you in the twisties!

NICE!

How long did you wait before modding?
