Got my rims today, yes i know they're simmons but i think they suit the car especially with the chrome on the Calais. Went with 19 x 8.5 with 245/35 Tyres.

Rims look great, have always liked Simmons Rims even if they are on lots of cars.

Picked up a new head unit and some speakers, big improvement over stock. Also painted the engine covers to brighten the engine bay up a bit.

Need some advice. I'm looking at getting x force 4-1 headers, what size should i go for 1 5/8 or 1 3/4? I plan on camming it in the future, its got a x force 2.5 inch cat back at the moment. Also what hi flow cats are best to get.
Cheers

1 3/4 with 3in outlet

plenty of different brands of cats depends if the EPA/PO-PO may pull you over which you legally should run 400cell, I run 200cell magnaflow cats, but no EPA/ police defects up here in QLD

The Lower the cell the higher the flow

Dropped the car of today for headers and cats. Went with 1 3/4 X-Force 4-1 long headers and 100 cell hi flow cats, all 3 inch. So happy with it sounds insane. Next on the list is to replace the 2.5 inch mild steel cat back with a 3 inch stainless steel cat back with all the mufflers.
