3" Turbo-Back and Swift springs installed! Pic.

Renner Motorsport in Los Angeles built me a custom 3" turbo back exhaust with high flow cat this week and i just had it installed. This is a temporary tip though since they didn't have the 4" tip come in yet. They also installed my Swift springs which gave it a nice drop and the car now handles like a dream!

Ivo the owner of the shop does amazing work for great prices and to top it off, he is a killer race driver. He grew up in Bulgaria ralley racing and his father was a national champion. He's got an Evo VIII with chip, cams, exhaust, FMIC, etc. And a Subaru 2.5RS 2 door with a full STi engine, drivetrain, and interior swap. Its a monster!

Here is my car now!

Yeah. I'm really happy with the drop on this suspension. Its not too much because Swift is all about what drives best. Going lower will hurt your performance due to steering and suspension geometry.

I also love how the ride is a tiny bit softer when it comes to uneven pavement, etc. But when you need to turn, it really corners hard!

I'm getting a custom tune in about a week and next saturday i'm putting in a Swift rear sway bar.

I'm going to be buying forged BBS RE's in diamond black soon. 18". My stockers will soon get wrapped in race tires.

The ride is much better than stock. Very small bumps in road pavement have seemed to have lessened yet when i need the car to perform under mild to hard turning, it feels far more sure footed.

I'll be adding a swift sway bar next saturday to give the car a little bit of oversteer and lessen the body roll some.

^^^ Hmm.... they do look pretty nice. I'm buying a set of Pirelli P-Zero Corsa dot comp tires this week for my stocker wheels and will be ordering a set of BBS RE's in Diamond black with Pirelli P-Zero Nero's for them. I'm not sure if i should get 18's or 19's since they'll be on my street wheels. I may look into the tails once my sway bar and wheels/tires are purchased. I'm going to focus mainly on performance right now though. My car isn't a trailer queen.
