Thanks man. Hammond's a pretty nice little area. I love it here.

Just talked to my bro in law as he was leaving the Honda Dealership. I let him drive mine two weeks ago and now he's looking to by a Blue Sensation fit.

Shopping for exhausts now.

I've definitely caught it.

You found me a sick price on the HKS HP...what about the silent high power? Any Idea?

I found it...$600 cheapest. :'(

Zack--just the regular HKS Hi Power...for some reason there is a renamed and maybe smaller canister available overseas.

The regular Hi Power at around $290-$300 will do what you want for sure.

sorry about the shipping problems ^^ atleast you got most of your parts. If you dont mind me asking, How much were the Swift springs? How much of a drop? Where did you order from? im planning on ordering lowering springs til i can afford Full Suspension.

From what I've read and known, Swift Sport Mach drops a conservative 1.2"(F)/1.0"(R). Got everything (including Work XD-9 wheels which ships from Japan) from evasivemotorsports.com I suggest contacting them for a "live-quote" you might get lucky with discount/s... The tires were from tire rack

I really like my Swift springs... I would still be on the stock springs if I hadn't found out about Swift and was able to get some used.

Well Joe, You will be missing out on a great ride and handling if you use either of those springs and the limited travel is going to wreck your shocks over time.... That is why everyone that uses low travel shocks end up going over to coil overs.
