Not presently, but possibly in the future. I love the slammed look! But for now I'm gonna stick with the Koni Yellows and K-Spec springs.
Thanks everyone for the comments

Paul, it feels slower, like not as quick. I've seen 18+ psi spikes on my DH. And heat soak is definitely more prevalent :/ And it sounds waaay different.
BTW, got word today that I was accepted for the Platinum Level sponsorship!

Thanks. And Hector, I know right? Omar is supposed to make me a sig using the 1st picture in this thread, but his computer has a virus right now :/
I may go CO's in the future (more for show) as I LOVE the slammed look, esp w/ the Ms6, a la Cullen, but I got my current suspension setup for $220 plus stock stuff. And with my current projects, the $ for CO's is out of the question lol. But I will say my current set up is so badass!!! This car handles so incredibly w/ the Koni Yellows/K-Spec Springs! So for now...I'm happy

Took 1st Place MS6 at Palooza Fall '08. My first award ever for a car. Pretty stoked about it. Also won a Prosport 52mm Mechanical boost gauge that will be installed soon. I may have to consult some SU assistance as I've never installed one before.
Some pics of the glory:

Hey, I see that you added to this the inlet pipe I sell. You wouldn't by any chance mind posting some of your pictures of it in the intake thread?

Installed:
Billet Grille
Cobb Shifter Weight
CP-E Xcel Nano SRI
CP-E Lightweight Battery Tray
Custom Treadstone FMIC
Odyssey Drycell PC680MJT Battery
Unfortunately definitely had to remove the splitter :/ And you can see the bottom of the endtank and the cold pipe from the front of the car. I'll work with a buddy of mine who does fiberglass to make a way to cover that up eventually but I didn't really want to cut the bumper all up. (More or less Pops really, really, really didn't want me to so I settled lol). I oughtta get some daytime pics b/c I since these pics rotated clamps and little things like that to make it looks a little better. And I thought I had some pics with the bumper back on w/ the billet grille but I guess not so I'll try to snap some soon. I wanna get it PC'd black first tho.
And tomorrow I set an appointment with the audio shop to start installing my system. So that will be in the works asap...pics after it's all finished
I had to slightly relocate these to make room for the cold pipe.

Price for the FMIC was:
Treadstone Core - $200 shipped off mdogg...thanks bro! It retails for $300.
Pipe kit - $115 iirc
2.75"-2.5" silicon reducer - $12
2.5"-2" silicon reducing 45 - $23
2.5" silicon 45 - $20
2.5" silicon 90 - $20
extra t-bolt clamps - $10
bov flange weld - free (usually around $40)
JB Weld for cut ends of pipe - $5
grand total - $405
I also got like $30 back from MS cashback on ebay. So like $375. I had one 45 and one 90 piece of silicon laying around my garage which saved maybe $40? And had I bought the core new and had to pay for welding it would have come to give/take $600.
And technically I bought the battery, tray and sri so I could route the hot pipe the way I wanted so if you include this in the price that adds about $500 but those were things I wanted to do previously anyway so it all worked out in the end
