Update! Diffuser has already mounted on my car, and Kanchi will be posting some pics soon. The diffuser has incredibly increase high speed, corner stability, and up hill speed. Its not big time difference, but definitely a great mod both in performance and look! Thanks again to Kanchi!

EASIER for sure! Kanchi is gonna do his on five axis lip kit and megan drift spec exhaust. But I am not sure when, probably next couple weeks or so on. :D

Btw I think w/ the canister exhaust, the diffuser can be longer and bigger, which can cover more in the rear end. Which is a GOOD thing!
