if you have that adjustable suspension crap take off the servo motors on top of the shocks cause they weigh like 2lbs each and i doubt they work and you get a switched power source under the hood
i've been planning on removing my aas, but i didnt think about the switched power supply, thanks :smirk:

any ideas on where to hide a bottle?

eh, I plan on using the storage bins as a sub box, but, having thought about the bottle thing myself, I say, slide the passenger seat up some, and just stick it right there, if you are like me, there is always tons of crap in your car anyway, and you could just throw that on top of the bottle, and viola, instant sleeper, just don't lift your hood ("what are those SS lines with the red and blue connectors?" "uhh, brake lines", "on the intake?" "sure, they are air brakes, yeah, thats it, air brakes")

keep your subs in the storage bins and get a sealed box with some cheap *** or blown speakers in it and hack off the baskets and magnets leaving only the fronts of the installed speakers mount the bottle in the now non functional box and drill a hole in the bottom of the box and run the lines thru the lil fule pump cover under the carpet in the hatch :smirk: ... oh yea and make sure you can get the back of the box off to refill your bottle

I was going to remove the exhaust heat shields too except around the gas tank.... wonder how much they weight and if it's worth it.
