Default Went shopping today

So I got my tax refund from the state on saturday, and It's all spent already.

I went on a shopping spree at ZZP. Picked up an off road 2.5" downpipe, Wizaired intake, and front and rear Power Stop pads. Can't wait to get everything installed.

The pads aren't top of the line, but they are better than what I have now.

As for the intake and downpipe, can't wait for them to get here. Intake can be installed immediately, but the down pipe will have to wait a week or so until I can jack the car up.

I will take pics as much as possible, if I can't do it myself, then that's pie on my face for sure.

Steven,

Thats what I figured it would be. Worst part should be laying on my back and reaching around things to install it.

Depending on the salt in your area the bolts will either be REALLY easy, or REALLY hard.

I recommend buying new bolts for the downpipe before you even start... just in case

Mike, you wouldn't happen to know where to pick those up would you? I'm assuming they are a special bolt.
