    The new 09 all stock...

    Took the Greddy TiC Axle-Back exhaust off the 08 before trading it in and put it on the 09...

    Then in November I put her away for the winter so I could do work and so I didnt have to take her on the crappy roads of PA winters...

    I installed the springs, put my RRM Header on from my 08 (how I realized it was a PZEV), and got my new wheels and tires, and threw those bad boys on and took some pictures but then forgot my camera back home where my car is still sitting in the garage so I couldn't put the newest pictures up yet. I should have them on here this weekend. And just this week I got my EvoX CF Hood from FedEx so that should also be going on soon and then my windows will be tinted in the near future.

    I had the PZEV header but didn't want to have to spend another 90 for the CEL, and it was worth it just for the 5 spd. More options down the road...

    Yeah plus the 2.4 L is a cool little upgrade with the 09 GTSs.

    I'm from central PA near Lewistown, but I'm living at school in Williamsport right now.

    Put on the WORKS lowering springs...

    [​IMG]

    Put on the Konig Unknown wheels, 18x7.5 with Kumho Ecsta SPT 225/40/18 tires...

    RRM Header...

    [​IMG]

    Put it back on the ground then waited til the next day and ran it through an automatic car wash so I could get some clean pictures. If you can't tell the water froze on the car right after leaving the car wash...

    My cousing has those wheels on his blue subie. I was kinda hoping the works drop would look lower thought :cry:. Looking good so far none the less. Keep it up.

    No PA is FED spec except in some of the cities and yeah he's right the 2.4 is FED only...

    I'm getting my windows tinted this weekend then I'm saving up for a CF spoiler next. Not sure which I'm gonna go with, maybe the APR one made for the EvoX and then an Injen CAI intake... This summer when I can work full time I wanna save up for the turbo, hopefully...
