    hey vik...wehre did you get the vortex gen??ive been looking into this but dont want the full bracket...i love how your ride is looking man...nice +1

    PS: what did you do to your tail lights??did you cut them open to paint the inside or are they just tints like the headlights??speaking of headlights, do you have hids or stock??ive heard that hids and tint covers arent a good combination due to the excessive heat the hids make...anyone know if this is true??thanks

    the bracket came with it...it was an AEM SRI from my 06 lancer RA...cut the part that i need, got some extension tubes...and there you go...instant SRI...

    it actually sounds nice...a lot nicer than expected in addition to the muffler that i got...

    the kit was from my 06 lancer r/a...i chop off a few areas to make it fit my 08...looks nice from a far...

    problem is...i dont know the hp gain with this setup...i havent dyno'd my car yet...hopefully i went over the fed spec hp since mines a cali spec...
