Ok I should of looked at the links before answering you, first of, it is only 1.5 inch drop that is about the same as I am fixing to drop my car and im going a little lower, you will be fine with that exauhst it's not going to scrape unless the speed bump is stupid high as sometimes they are and if they are go on it at a angle and I have a K&N TYPHOON short ram intake and it work fantastic. I don't know about that one considering that it is a cold air intake but it has no heat shield.. so it doesn't really have much of a cold pocket to work with but im pretty sure you will see some gain in HP with it. Myself I like the K&N TYPHOON INTAKE.

No problem, I got a question are you planning to get shocks as well or just springs?

There are Skunk2 Springs that drop it about the same area for a tad less then T springs, I have been told by a couple people that they traded in the T springs to get S2.

Have you ever dropped a car before?

and tell me what you think of that short ram intake.
