Welcome and congrats! Tires are always a good upgrade, especially if you are currently on run flats.

Welcome! If you're in northbrook then you're like my next door neighbor. I'm all over the Northwest burbs and Chicago. Also, if you plan on getting performance mods then be sure to add a chargepipe as one of your first mods

Congratulations and welcome!

Is it a 4 cylinder or 6 cylinder?

There are so many exhaust options to fit every decibel requirement. Nice mod!

I'm down to go. Been wanting to go to some of the cars and coffee (caffeine and octane, and other copycats, etc) saturday meets but it keeps raining. Completely forgot about and missed Import Faceoff and I'm still slightly upset about that
