A few small updates.
Added my team decal
new oem rear bumper to mold my hl rear lip on to
My new fiberglass Vlip. I was going to get the cf one but I will get that cf one at a later time when I start to add on some cf parts to the car. But right now I will keep the look with orange and matte black for now.

Wow... you can really tell you put alot of work into that car. It looks really good man and I bet that sound system is amazing. Also that engine bay is really nice. That is one sick ride.

A few new photos.
Currently installing my Rotor Glow Hella Supertone Horns. The left horn is going to need a new bracket since its not leveled like the one on the right.
And heres another photo of the HL Front Lip on my bumper

How happy are you with RRM's equipment so far, they seem to be more supplied with 2.4L 4b12. I just picked up my 2010 GTS and have big plans in store and want to get going on it (but in stages so will be slow) - also what actual gains have you felt from the mods, ie throw/acceleration/braking/pull/ride stiffness/etc

RRM SRI
RRM Light weight pully
RRM Header with PZEV adaptor
Magnaflow Catback Exhaust.
Tuned By Road Race Engineering
After removing the RRM Piggyback and RRM Timing controller and getting the tune at Road Race Engineering I was able to feel that the car can gain speed allot more quickly than it did before the tune. Before the car felt kinda sluggish when trying to catch up to speed. Still not a turbo but I do feel the difference. I do recommend the tune. You can go with the RRM SRI or there are a few other SRI's that allot of other people prefer over the RRM one which are: Takeda, greddy, K&N
With braking I upgraded to R1 Concepts premium rotors and also got stoptech and posiquiet brake pads. I'm very happy with this upgrade to the car. I do feel the difference. I don't really get too technical when describing the difference but ya I would recommend this to others.
For ride stiffness. Currently on my car for wheels, tires and coilovers I have:
Tenzo-R Cuzco 19x8.5 + 45 wheels
Nankang NS-II tires 245-35-19
Megan coilovers
If you are to upgrade your stock wheels I recommend staying with 18 inch weels. I went with the 19 inch wheels that i currently have which were one of the first mods that I have done. I do feel allot of the road with these wheels and will try to go back to 18 inch wheels again once I want to change my set up since I dont like how much I can feel the road on these wheels. Tires aren't the best and looking to go with some Michelin tires which I hear good things about.
If you want to lower your car I suggest coilovers over lowering springs. I had the opportunity to test both. I did have Eibach sportlines, I'm not too sure if its because of the size wheels that I have on right now but with the sportlines I was able to feel allot of the road and was very bouncy for me. I switched to the megan coilovers and now feels allot better and close to stock feel but I do get instances where I do feel the road when I hit a bump or go over a speed bump.

I'm late with this response but I really like the approach you took with this car. I like your attention to detail and I bet that tune squeezed a few extra horses from that stock engine. Good job overall!
