I have driven both a auto SS and a manual SS so if I do end up going I should be able to tell the difference in the 1LE. If everything stays as planned I will be in Indy next Friday afternoon

Any suggestions on exhaust? I have a V6 2011. Want to hear the roar of the engine.

Can I change the head lights and add fog lights without voiding the warranty? Service dude basically told me that any change ( radio, head lights, fog lights, etc).

Yes, it will void the warranty of what you changed. Won't void no related issues, e.g.changing lights doesn't void engine warranty.

If you're going to do oem halos, I highly suggest you don't go through the dealer. They're about 2 grand from the dealer.

If you drive that 1LE, you're going to want to redo your suspension
I can't wait for my bushings tomorrow to get to installing things monday

That's really up to u. Trailing arms reduce wheel hop and increase traction by planting the tire but if your tires are garbage anyway, the trailing arms aren't going to help much, get me?

Yea, the nitto will work but idk how much better they are. I'd do the trailing arms and see if they help and if not, you know it's the tires that need help
