My CAC went in last month
Looks massive!  Details?  And that whale back there needs to brush its' teeth :D

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

We ... need ... pics ...

I posted a picture of the exhaust in the Performance/Exhaust thread. Can't see the new Magnaflow underneath. It's pretty rough on the ears at some points of low throttle and RPM. It sounds great while getting on it a little. My wife may get pissed about this one. I have a feeling she's going to hate it. Any recommendations?

Yes, the Corsa exhaust.  No drone.  Mine is showing up via FedEx anytime. 

All other exhausts have drone, which blows in a luxury car like ours.  Been there, done that.

If the droning sound is of concern, maybe you can build in a resonance tube like wasinger did for his SHO.

Otherwise, the Corsa does sound the best of all the systems tested thoughout the rev range.

I love my sho.... so far I've put 1000k miles on in Colorado and it's been amazing at so many things. Does great on unexpected loose gravel hill climbs, then beats up on 95% of the cars on the road all while being comfortable on a nice highway drive. It's just a perfect blend.
13' SHO, Non-PP, Tuned by Torrie, Meth injection, 3 bar, 170* stat, custom axle back exhaust, Prosport Boost gauge.

13' GTCS, will be missed.

Finally got around to installing the 22's I picked up last month (thanks once again Lanson!).  I love the look, although I still feel guilty for cheating on my flower power wheels, lol. Everything fits nice and flush, debating on doing the drop though.

Looks amazing on-car, nice pick!

Yup, those wheels are baller.  I don't think you need a drop!

They filled in the wheel gap nicely.
I really like the look. But, this has confirmed my greatest uncertainty - is 22" too big? For me, yes I believe so! Those suckers look gargantuan!

Sweet look on the 22's.... What is the rolling diameter compared to the OEM 245/45 R20's?

LOL, coming from someone that was going to put 24s on my Limited before I traded it for the SHO, I never thought I'd say it, but I actually don't disagree with you. They are borderline too big for me as well, but I still like it. :) Definitely would not go a millimeter bigger than 22.

Running 265/35/22 which puts me at 29.3" vs 28.7" on the stock flower wheels/tires.

I like how the 22's fill the wheel wells and at full lock turn there's about enough room to swipe a credit card, lol just barely.  I want to try a drop, but I'm not 100% that it could take it honestly.  Maybe if I come across some Eibach's or if Megan ever gets serious about making us some coilovers I'd give it a go, but at this point my dreams of H&R's are pretty much dead in my opinion.

I was never really looking at wheel upgrades because I love the flowers so much, but I wanted to go with a wider tire.  When I came across the deal for these though, it was the tire width I wanted (265) but at the price of buying new tires.  I figured an effectively "free" set of 22's, why not do it. 

Although now for some reason, I feel dirty like I no longer have a SHO, just a Taurus with rims.  I can no longer look my flower wheels in the eye, haha
