Guys! I need some help with your expertise
Got two problems...

Problem one
I bought a K&N Typhoon kit which was made for the Si
Any was told that it fits the Australian FD2. Put it in and the intake pipe is on the wrong
angle because our throttle is different. So i ended up getting the grinder out and cutting off most of
the heatshield. But can easily be rewelded back together. It fits and works fine but if I put the heatshield in
it just sits on an angle and touches the bonnet. But without the shield it works
Anyone know how to turn the pipe?

Problem Two
Due to the car being too low my axle is hitting my exhaust. Went to my local exhaust place and ask if
they can do an exhaust tuck. But cannot be done to the car. He says the car is too low blah blah blah...
I Know the car is too low and I want to keep it that way and not have people tell me it is. Even though I came
to him happy to pay money to fix the problem then he gave me a lecture about car being too low -.-
He said theres no harm in it touching but it get annoying when im turning left and the car touches it

Any Solutions? Besides raising the car..

I had the same issue with problem 2. Took it to the exhaust shop guy and he took a chunk of the axle until there was clearance.

Anyone know, if these speakers, Pioneer TS-A1604C will fit front speaker location, without the need to cut open the side door grille ? In terms of tweeters, probably just ditch them.. =/ there's no were really to put them.

Not sure. But Stock speakers! My stock speaksers are running strong lol
Just put a sub in and it'll be alright. I've actually won some sound competitions with stocks
speakers and no one believes me they're stock.

Hhaha, my Bass Works factory option rear speakers are overpowering my front speakers like crazy, I had to use the options in my headunit to move the sound stage more too the front, I rather not have to do that.

Just need any decent aftermarket front speakers to balance it out .

Any ideas?

I personally would go Alpine Type R. Only because i love my Alpines.
I dont think changing speakers will do much difference. Your headunit is still sending out the same signal.
The only way to make a difference is to change the headunit. Theres only so much power the headunit sends out.

Also, Need your opinion. These on my FD?

Yay or Ney?

They fit nicely in front speaker spots? Which one you got, I'll get the same =D co-axial or component?

I already have a aftermarket double din pioneer headunit.
