Well I never saw any painting options when I bought it so I guess its coming unpainted.. Not sure were I will take it to get painted.

I ended up buying from BK so hopefully itll turn out alright

I would definitely go with the full set (2 pipes) only like $50 dollars difference.. there isnt really any point getting a uicp if you don't change all of the upper piping.

What would you recommend in regards to look, fitment, price?

Why would SQ be important in regards to sub woofers, wouldn't it be more important for speakers? I may be interested for future reference just need some cash.

I dont really know much about car audio, but what do you mean in terms of not clean in signal? I will be using a line output converter would it work alright?

That sounds extremely cheap to me? I have 2 of the new Alpine Type R's and which are 1000watt each and I was recommended to buy 2 PDX-m12 which are $1000 each :\ they are only 1200watt at 4ohm

Absolutely nothing!!

I'm from down south so Ive probably seen you around

Happy birthday man

I don't plan on doing it, was just curious because of the horror stories Ive read about the tc-sst but I think its more hype than anything.

You would only do something like this if you are going to keep the RA. Im guessing it would cost big $$$ to do the conversion. But in saying that, you would be the only RA that would have a manual transmission. What do you mean when you say keep the RA, as in most people wouldnt keep a RA for long ...

Is it possible with after market or evo x manual transmission? Would you consider it, what are your thoughts on the tc-sst?
