Looks good!  When you throw that Stinger kit on, tell me how it fits, I seriously looking into getting one in the next month (or as soon as I sell my '85 Omni turbo).

What kind of shocks are those?

The exhaust is made up of a Stinger 3" downpipe, Stinger midpipe (that the exhaust shop put a couple extra bends into so the ler would tuck up nicer), a Dynomax super turbo offset/offset ler, a 2.5 mandrel bent Mustang GT tailpipe and a nice NOS Ansa resonator tip I scored on eBay.

It has a nice smooth burble at idle that is louder than stock for sure, but NOT obnoxious.. no drone on the highway but a real nice tone under wide open throttle. I think it sounds perfect.

The shocks are Koni reds.. long since unavailable. When I bought the car last year the original owner include a complete set, brand new in the boxes.

As for the FMIC..I plan on doing a complete phot essay of the install for others to use if they use the same kit~
