Some pictures from recent installation

Got some pics from the performance shop. Looks like they are getting ready to start tuning it. Can not wait to pick it up after my work trip ends.

Items getting installed.
American racing Headers, Steeda lower & upper control arms
Magnaflow exhaust, Steeda Pan Hard and several other items.

I will take some additional Pics when I pick up the car.

I hope to pick up the car soon. I am out of town for work, so it was a perfect time to get the installation done.

Those appear to be our non-adjustable chrome moly LCAs. Our rear LCA relocation brackets require welding for installation. We've found there's simply too much stress at those points for them just to be bolted-in, both through R&D and also experiences that others have had with other brands.

Hurricane sandy put a little delay in picking up my car. Good news is that the shop put her indoors during the storm. They are going to some test drives tomorrow and hopefully I can pick her up then. Now I need to find a garage to store he over the winter.
