Yeah, if I recall correctly, two bulk packs like that should be more than adequate for the trunk space. (and the carpet pad idea, above, is another good, very inexpensive top layer: The way I understand Dynamat is that it really deadens noises carried by vibrations in the metal, which is why...

Putting most any buffer material in between the plates works - I used a 2" x 3/4" strip of dynamat, but felt works, as does any rubber (like a slice of innertube). You need some kind of buffer in between the base and shift lever or you will get the tranny whine telegraphing up through the...

Max Motorsports makes top quality stuff. I love their STB, but also had a Kenny Brown STB that (IMHO) was of equal quality. However, the KB unit would not work with MM's CC plates, so I ended up buying MM STB (and selling the KB). My point: Its not just the brace -- you should also try to...

I have the Bassani mid-length headers and catted x mated to my Magnaflow cat-back. Absolutley no emissions issues to date. I'm having the car dynoed again soon, but based on the ass-o-meter the headers did wonders. Going from stock exhaust (if that's where you are now) to a full Bassani...

Cat back, Tri-Ax shifter..., but I'd do some early suspension mods on there as well, as they make a world of difference if you like the twisties. By the way: Are you with me Dr. Wu? Are you really just a shadow of the man that I once knew...are you crazy? are you high? or just an ordinary...

Glad you had her checked out first. AT least you know you don't need those standard upgrades... Opinions on exhaust are like a-holes, everyone's got one. That may be your biggest problem: Trying to pick an exhaust system that your hubby likes just as much as you (or whoever recommended it...

Since you just bought the '01, it's got to be used (right?). Soooo, before you shell out $$ for anything, you might want someone to check it out to see what (if anything) has been done. I mean, judging from your prior posts, it's entirely possible you have 4.10s, Tri-Ax shifter and FR500...

I'm running the cats. However, the Bassani X pipe that mates with the mid-length headers comes with the OR tubes, which are sitting in a box for future use! (Having said that, if you hold up a Bassani Cat, you can literally see right through it so I doubt there's much difference between the...

Bassani mid-lengths here. Love them, hated the price. Should have new dyno numbers within a few weeks (the ass-o-meter really likes them). They sound friggin' awesome with my cat-back.

4.10s. 4.10s 4.10s Man, I almost made the same choice (now, what I would call a mistake) as you. The guys on every board I've been on since I owned my car convinced me I was wrong even considering 3.73s. There's a reason for the "don't fear the gear" comments -- they are true. 4.10s are a...

Just tell the exhaust guys just to put it on like the manufacturer states, I seriously doubt you will have any problems. My Magnaflow X and Cat-back never rattled, came unglued or moved, and I've now got the Bassani Mid-lengths and Bassani X mated to the Mag. cat-back, again, nothing moving...

Cool for some, but if you don't like it, the fix is really easy: Take a 2-3" piece of felt, dynamat or something similar, as wide as the shift lever, and place it in between the shift lever and shift lever mounting bracket (i.e., sandwitch it in between the two metal pieces and bolt her back...

I have the Bilsteins on all four corners, my drop with the Steeda Cobra Sports was just about 1.5" all around. While I have no idea what the problem is with your ride -- and am not discounting the possibility the Bils were installed improperly -- I suspect it is your springs (in my defense, I'm...

No problem -- A bit of unsolicited but sound (IMHO) advice: Go at it slowly, and follow the instructions. The stuff is great if applied right, a waste of time and money if done wrong. The dyanamat/Fatmat/brownbread stuff (sticky, with foil back), absolutely must make contact/stick to the...

Had similar issues (after market cat back, bushing swap and end-to-end cold air kit with no silencer). Got very VERY loud. I covered the entire passenger compartment (under carpet from as high up on the fire wall as I could go to back through the rear seats) with layer of dynamat extreme and...

I had the KDWS, but didn't like them much, but I have to admit they did a damn site better than last year's winter-with-death-slicks. I opted for the Blizzaks this time based on the reviews on the boards and Tirerack's web page. (Wing and a prayer, basically). Time will tell...

:nice: Had mine mounted last week -- after the multiple "near death" experiences last winter, had to give 'em a shot. $140 each on Tirerack.
