wouldn't call it a build, so lets just keep it down to "project"
(This thread WILL be updated from time to time... just keep watch!)

To start off for 2010:
Megan Racing lowering springs ()
K-tuned fuel rail ()
Exhaust (not quite sure yet) ()
valve cover will be painted ()
Engine accessories (oil caps, rad cap, etc.) ()
Carbon fibre spark plug cover (X)
CAI (X)
Beaks Bar (custom brackets) ()

I already got some things done:
CAI and the carbon fibre spark plug cover.

CAI (i'm running a AEM CAI + AEM dryflow air filter)

CF!!!!!!!! :-D:-D:-D:-D:-D

SOUNDS good....................pictures would be better

I like the carbon fiber cover.

Just telling you now because everyone else is going to say it............buy Tein Basics, unless you like replacing struts.

 

[insane_sc]

^^^I was gonna say Ksports or Teins last night. Lowering springs are a waste of money imo.

Loving the CF cover, got a link where to buy it?

Can't wait to see some more pics!

Yay! more build threads! Im excited! PM me if you want to buy my old gibson ss catback for cheap...

 

[kitkat123474]

PM sent

by the way, what specs on the exhaust?

i couldn't find anything on their website.

 

[eyecarvether4iam]

ss mandrel bent piping(2 3/8 i believe) and single in out muffler with slash cut 3.5in tip. Looks clean. Search the site for the gibson and you can find pics. The mild steel and SS are the same just different metarial.

 

[kitkat123474]

do you think i can raise the stock wing just like the CTR wings? lol

 

[eyecarvether4iam]

I will let you know... I am going to try and do that with my SC spoiler... Not sure if it will work..

 

[kitkat123474]

its gonna be a new trend!! ZOMG!!!

 

[DarkElement07]

Sweeeeet! Thumbs up!

 

[MarcoFranssen]

the first and best thing to do, when you are tuning up your engine room is ....... cleaning it.

unless you like replacing struts.

explane ... ?? is Megan so bad ??

 

[FMF]

The springs aren't bad. It's the fact that the stock shocks weren't designed for the lowered ride and will operate beyond their capabilities usually leading to failure which requires replacement and by that point you should've just gone with coilovers from the beginning. You could also pick up some nice performance shocks that are made for that sort of thing.

 

[insane_sc]

Too bad there is no aftermarket struts/shocks for the E designed to handle lowering springs, its alot more cost effective to buy coilovers.

 

[boxedup1]

have the springs for you:grin:

 

[kitkat123474]

sent you PM's ^^

i'm willing to do $60 USD shipped. is that ok for you??

i'm transferring money ATM over to paypal, will be able to get it in about a week or so.

send me your email, so i can mail you the $60 via paypal.

 

[eyecarvether4iam]

Coming right along! LMK if you need that exhaust..

 

[f5000sl]

I'd have to agree with people on the lowered E. We have an 07 SC and it comes .7" lowered and the shocks are NOT designed even for that stance.
They have a very harsh on/off feel in the beginning because in fact they are being engaged at almost 1" into their normal travel.

 

[Yoda E SC]

I'd have to agree with people on the lowered E. We have an 07 SC and it comes .7" lowered and the shocks are NOT designed even for that stance.

actually they are on the SC. they are a totally different assembly than the non-SC's

51605-SCV-A92 Left for the SC
51605-SCV-A05 Left for the others

they feel harsher because they are.;-)
