I went with Agency Power headers and mufflers, but they didn't carry cats so went SpeedTech 200 cell cats.

Not sure what they sound like yet, haven't started the car yet as just finishing my interior work...

Cheers

No idea, I'll be running a supercharger, so will be a lot different than the norm... plus I don't like dynos so I won't be putting my car on one.

You are going about it the right way, I have the VF supercharger and headers with 200 cell cats and the pse hack on my mufflers. Mine sounds very good and heavy even v8tish, I get compliments all the time although it's not to loud but when I'm on it even my wife likes it, go figure... sometimes I start it up and listen to it while it warms with a sheepish grin sweeeeet!

How long have you been running your SC? I've heard of people going over 40k miles with them reliably which is one of the reasons I invested on the last sale at Vivid.

I'm thinking of installing a supercharger onto my 04 C4S and was wondering if you have found any problems arising from the installation of the supercharger... like oil leaks or reliability issues stuff that is not normal.

No, the only thing I found is that your maintenance items come up quicker: like crankcase vent valve, plugs and coil packs. The supercharger needs seals after about 20k, but it won't make your car leak oil if your car leaks oil it prolly would without the supercharger.

I have an 04 C4S with about 10,000km on it... car is in mint condition... thinking it's time to either sell it or drive it... so I decided to drive it... so supercharger, exhaust and suspension. What do you reccommend for exhaust and suspension?

Thanks for that! I'm going ahead with the supercharger then. VF Engineering is having a sale! The supercharger normally sells at 11500.00 is now on sale at 7500.00.... but only untill the end of this month! It's a great deal! My local guy says that he pays more than that!

Now onto exhaust... I'm looking to get a bit louder and a lower tone (if possible)... what do you reccommend?

Suspension wise... I'm looking to tighten it up a bit but not so stiff that I can't drive it everyday... looking for suggestions
