Welcome and congrats, sorry so late welcoming though!

Congrats man you will love this car

...except in snow

I found the snow this past winter to not be an issue actually in my MS3, stock suspension also, not lowered. Only problem I had was when my tires had little tread and slipped a little.

As far as intakes go, I have the CP-e SRI, and I think its absolutely amazing. I might pick up a COBB SRI though soon to run and compare to see which performs better. Upgrade your TIP also while at it, Ken's is awesome and at a great price!

you need to have a photobucket or something similar (anything that puts your pictures online) then you just click the button with the mountain and put the link into that and it will post up your picture. if you dont have one then you can attach a file on the bottom where it says "attach files"

 

[BoostMS3]

awsome thanks for all your help...ill try to get some pics up soon then with the rear mm and the springs

 

[BoostMS3]

Sorry for the crappy pics..but here they are

you shouldnt need an alignment with HR assprings. My drops zones are a tad lower than the overpriced HR and they were still in spec. I have heard others that didnt need an alignment with HR either.

But looks good tho. Also I didnt think they made the 08 model in pearl white, thought it was the later model 08 (08.5) and up. I would totally have gotten white over silver if they offerred it in the 2008 model when I got mine

Dude! Check the forsale section. A guy is selling his CP-E CAI BRAND NEW never installed for like 100 off what a new one is... I think he'll be flexible because no one is biting at all.

 

[BoostMS3]

thanks a lot man...i just pm'd him about it...looks like maybe the intake will be sooner haha...

 

[onelsono]

congrats man, car looks good.. their saying for you to get an intake first,, id get pistons and rods first lol.. read up and some of the blown motor cases, and learn how to prevent yours from doing the same.. good luck.. i got H&R's to, their sick

 

[BoostMS3]

yeahh true! hopefully got my CP-E CAI on it way and Cobb AP in November! Cant wait

 

[MaikuMS3]

does CAI sound better or SRI?

EDIT: nvm. youtubed and SRI is a bit more sharper than CAI.
