lose the bilsteins and go for yellow konis with the adjustable perch.
I was worried they'd be too harsh, but in full soft they are wonderful! brad did the second hole on my valence which is fiberglass. It looks like it fit the driver's side hole no problem. My muffler was dented a bit in shipping. I cut between 2 1/2 & 4 inches off the end of the muffler's tips and put the pep boys tips on $6.99 each (2 1/2) I had to trim 3 inches or so off the PB tips to fit and then drilled a pilot hole and screwed them in. I think it looks pretty good. |

Miles,
I have the Koni adjustables also. Really sweet. Spin the knob and they're almost as soft as stock. Spin the otherway and hang on to your ass. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Here is how I cut out the notch on the valence for the TRIAD. I sketched the stock muffler notch on a piece of cardboard. Then cut it out and reversed it for my pattern. Then jacked the exhaust into place (more or less) and determined where the right hand notch needed to be. Sketched the cut lines from the pattern and cut with a dremmel tool. I was only off by 1/2" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) You'll like that exhaust! |

I am looking at the difference in around $500 vs around $900 for the rearend to drop, and my ass not to hurt?
I have never had adjustable konis. M |

Sean,
Your drivers side "notch" didnt match the Triad tip. I know you guy's like Triad.. but I'm worried about the fiberglass packed CHERRY BOMBS he uses for the 3 mufflers. They will only get louder with time like ALL fiberglass packed mufflers. Chris Reale.. if you have the Bursch.. I would like to have it for 70$. B |
