Hey whats goin on?

First up, welcome to Justcommodores...

Second... there is a search tool in this forum... use it!lol

There is about 2 threads covering lowering on this page and a couple talking about exhausts!

Lowering costs:

King Springs front $125
King Springs back $125
Monroe Shocks front $180
Monroe Shocks back $180
Rear Camber Kit (4 P) $200
Labor $200
========================
TOTAL $1010 (approx.)


Now thats a properly lowered car... You can just do the springs now n get shockers later if ur not going too low and the camber kit is a must if u got big rims caus you'll chew through tyres!

A catback exhaust will set u back about 400 bux installed...
Add some extractors to that n theres another 700 or so bux
No point gettin a hi-flow sports CAT unless ur car it making some 200+ kw

Good luck with it...

And remember... the Search Tool is your friend!

The ^above^ Poster is pretty much on the Ball - you have options to tweak around the exhaust 1. remove the rear muffler and have straight through exhaust 2. remove the middle muffler and add a redback sports exhaust to the rear 3. few good brands of headers ( extractors ) out there ( all depends on your $$$ needs ) the other mods are K&N filter $100 and aunger CAI ( cold air intake )

i have the same car. i got my springs compressed and brought a rear camber. i want to get the thing redone with shockers though but it is okay for now.
also i have a redback 3 1/2" cat back system and it sounds perfect. not too much drone on the freeway. saving for some extractors

3 1/2 .... ??

i think he means 2 1/2" for the exhaust system...

3 and a half inch would be massive and cause ur bottom end to really drop out...
