    Got it lowered. Havent driven it yet and the springs have not settled. But overall it wasnt too hard at all.


    Before



    During... Stance??



    After. Hoping it settles more in the ass end.



    Saturday the nameless axleback will be here!

    You are better with forward rack than reverse rack.

    Looks good dropped. What does the aftermarket strut market look like for these cars these days?

    Havent really looked into it too much. I think the main companies make some. I know there are some adjustable type ones.

    right now i have an odd clunk up front when i am going slow over bumps. Dont know what it is.

    24k. I have heard from other people that run these springs they can be noisey sometimes. It is getting a little better and has gone a little lower now and i am really liking it. The ride is decent since the stock sx springs are so stiff to begin with.

    Just tune it...Trifecta already has a file out for them. Problem is the way the car limits boost based on MAF readings...so a dyno is pretty tough to get a good read on them.

    Intake, catted DP/o2 housing, tune. 305 FWHP/335 WTQ. Less than grand. Still alright on warranty too.

    Yup. Logged nearly 2k miles on her car a few weeks ago when in Michigan. Awesome.

    Too bad the Fusions are way overpriced and the LaCrosse has the 3.6 V6 in it with all the timing chain issues...yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.
