Hey guys got my GT3 Sway Bars and IPD Plenum finally on Friday. Been driving this weekend and got my verdict.

GT3 Sways

I have a stock susp, and im on 19s so when i went to 19s from 18s I felt a BIG difference right away w body roll and handling. Buts its not unbearable (I Prefer the 19" look) I just wanted some feel back. With the GT3s set in the middle for both front and rear theres no body roll now. Driving in the city the car feels more solid and steering feels a bit tighter. So im happy with the sways. I have some factors against me like the 19s... I have a TT Front Bumper so my car FLOATS in the front way more than I like on the highway so now Im looking into a ROW setup which with these sways should be a perfect match

RSS Plenum

Ah the big one haha. I have been with RSS on this product and I know people have been bashing this product yada yada. Im not a DYNO guy I know my car and I can tell if it feels any faster which is all I care about. When I 1st got back in the car after install I couldnt tell a difference. But what I was happy with was the car felt as stock. (I had Bi Pass Pipes on my car and when 1st installed I LOST power for 100 miles or so and my BMWs I had intakes and chips and LOST power for 100 miles or so) NOT the plenum and I know the car had to adapt so that was a positive. I now have put on 100 miles or so and it has added power NO DOUBT ABOUT IT especially in the 4k band and above. And its 98 degress and humid I cant imagine the car in a fall night with some cold air. And im sure with a couple more miles the Plenum will make some more power. Its a good product and WORKS.

Hope this helps others who want to mod with some of these products
