They are fine. They aren't exactly the greatest thing at holding an alignment setup, but they do their job. Plan on getting an alignment a bit more often though because they do have a tendency to get knocked off easily.

Kool, thanks, I have SPL rears right now and I'm getting some annoying noise from the bearings.....so im actually planning on getting the spc's for the rear

I am a man of my word, here's a quick video of the car at idle and revving with the glass of water.

Turn your speakers up, its an iphone video so its not exactly HD, but it gets the point across. That clanking you hear is me putting the clutch in and out in neutral. You can hear the tranny winding up when I let the clutch out. Revving you can hear how much sound is transmitted into the car.

I have to say thought, NVH has decreased a lot since the install. I will take another video for you folks in about a week or so. At this point it's still not daily drivable for me.

Thx for the vid. Yes, it does get the point across. lol

Supercharger ordered

Oh and I parked the car today....walked out...heard hissing...looked around...found nothing. Then it started raining so i put up my windows on the drive home.... My A/C is no longer cold. Any ideas where my leak is?

Could it be around the Stillen Gen III intake where those AC lines come close to the piping, I believe someone had an issue similar but did not hear anything about a hissing sound.

good call, I will check it out later.

travisjb · 03-12-2010, 11:02 PM

good excuse to ditch the a/c !

RCZ · 03-12-2010, 11:18 PM

Hahaha, yeah right! Maybe in a few years.
