Car looks great! More pics!! Colored wheels look good with silver cars too

what bolt pattern are the prodrives? I think they would look sick on an -01 rs...

 
what benefit does the pitch stop mount add compared to the stock one. I never did this because I thought it was a waste of money....

 
Thanks man! They are 5x100. I ordered Mcgards from wheeldude but they are still not in. I am

Made a huge difference on the drive home, a little bit more engine noise, but it is worth the trade offs. Rev-matching feels so much more rewarding now.

Driving around today, I noticed a few things:

1. Start-up seemed smoother

2. Letting off throttle, it seems less momentum is transferred forward, which I think will lead to more stable turn in while the front end is loaded

3. Didn't get to push it too much cause of the snow, but it was definitely noticeable on throttle

4. I could feel more engine and road feedback as well, always a good thing, probably 20% increase.

5. Engine noise was increased about 20% as well, it matches the exhaust nicely.

6. Steering felt slightly more immediate

so I guess as far as the nvh is concerned, I wouldn't really notice the noise part...exhaust is loud as f, where did you order this piece from?

I looked at rally sport direct and they had a few different brands

This for sure! Took a quick spin and you can definitely notice a difference. Kinda nerve racking taking the IC off for the first time tho...
