im after having all my engine mounts(dont need the 1 under the battery doing though) + the dogleg underneath replaced as it knocks all the time...and i want it quiet..PERIOD!
how much for the mounts from ktec
+ how much to fit them?
i want a full exhaust system (cat back..with decat) and want a performance increase. what i dont want however is a lot of noise. i want it to be as quiet as possible....
what can you recomend?
love the look of lowered suspension, but i hate the ride quality. is there any suspension sets out there that will lower the car...but still stay soft over the bumpy bits..(dont drive fast)
