RRM Drop Springs with AMS Catback

Hey Guys
For all of who who worrie that the ams catback will scrap or rub wit hthe RRM drop springs your worries are over, I recently put the springs on with the help of my friend, there are a few install pics below. The ride is amazing, i would like to thank Rob at RRM and Mike W at RRE, thanks alot guys for hooking me up. I was up in Tampa and springhill when I instaleld these and the roads up there are a mess, these springs got tested to the max, even with a loaded car the car still didnt make any noise or rub. Here are a few pics for you guys to enjoy feel free to ask me any questions that you might have.

sorry Pics are from my Iphone

anytime you put on new springs, it will throw off your alignment.
It will do your car a huge favor.

My specs were all outta whack when those RRM springs were installed on mine.
car ride ok, and straight, and a tad rough.

went to NTB to check the specs, and they were badddddd.
got it aligned, car is much better.

make your car happy! treat it good!

Let it go for about a hundred miles or so for the springs to set...but after that, get an alignment!

hows the ams exhaust sound? im looking at getting that exhaust but im worried about a drone. its my daily driver/commuter. i drive 70+ miles a day and dont want to get a headache on my way to work, but i do definitely want a nice growl out of it, and a little more noise.

mine looks very similar to yours. exactly the same from the outside atleast. its a wicked white with the rrm drop springs. i also have the ultimate racing intake, ultimate racing intercooler piping and an hks ssqv. it all works great together. runs fantastic. need a new exhaust, just not sure which way to go, but i love the ams setup. let me know. thanks!

Do not use stock specs, I'm pretty sure they will throw it out of whack even more than it will be. Get a custom alignment
