Added a GT500 style spoiler. It was a bitch getting the old one off at first after trying to use 6lb fishing line, and a little pry tool that came with my goo gone, even after heating everything up quite a bit. Then I busted out an old metal handle spatula and pried it off easy. I like it, balances out the rear nicely. I decided to go with the CJ Pony Parts item because it came with the gurney flap painted black, whereas the American Muscle one comes with the whole spoiler painted the same color. Color match is perfect.

It actually works too. 240 lbs of down force @ 150mph. 107 lbs @ 100 mph. 60 lbs @ 75 mph. The G flap provides another 20% more downforce..+ 5% more drag.

Got my JBA 3" H-pipe installed and the Lethal Performance 2.75" over-axle pipes.

No more pipes with 3" pipe welded in ... nice and clean now.

Sounds about 95% the same as before, but a little less raspy when cold, which I like.

The obligatory video and pics:

Got home from my friend's house where we did the work, and proceeded to clear out the garage, both bays still had tons of stuff and boxes in them from the move, 2 months ago.

But, success, both cars are now finally back in their climate-controlled spots :)

Mine has recently begun surging at idle, mostly before it is fully warmed up. Seems slightly down on power sometimes as well. Think I'm going to start with checking the plugs. 13K miles and only engine mod is a tune, it has run flawlessly for the last year.

^ Popped the hood and found my issue. The rubber cap I used for my sound tube delete dry rotted and cracked open. I have a 1.25" hole in my air intake tube. As a temporary emergency fix the cap from a 1 quart Mobil1 oil bottle fits.

Decided to part ways with it and get something more practical for myself and my family. If you follow me on facebook you will have a clue what is replacing it.
