Agreed. I think there are several possibilities in that department.

I have also been looking at mods for the Amanti. Mine is an 04 Rosewood color. I have my windows tinted, headlight bulbs changed, 2 - 10" Infinity subs with an 800 watt Kenwood, no emblems, air intake.

Nice! Can you elaborate on your experience with removing the emblems? What should I expect when I try to do it? (I hate emblems in general, especially the ridiculous advertisement decals dealerships try to put on the back of your car if you don’t protest).

First off on the headlights they are H7 & H4. If you look close at the rubber boot around the headlight when you open the hood the numbers are stamped on it.

Thanks for the info. What brand and model bulbs did you go with and what is your opinion on the final result?

I looked for a K&N air filter but they do not have a listing. I went to the local Auto Zone and asked them if I could check the dimensions of their K&N filters. They said yes and the one that is the closest is for the new Chrysler 300c Hemi. It is about a 1/4 off. I added 2 small pieces of metal to the inside of the stock air box with double sided tape and it fit perfect. If you look at the mass air flow sensor it has a grid and screen in it. These can be removed. It is supposed to flow about 20% more. Also just pass the MAF sensor there is a mushroom shaped part sticking out of the intake tube. This is supposed to quiet the noise. I removed it and taped over the opening and reinstalled it. This gives a smoother shot in. I also opened 3 holes in the bottom of the air box facing the fender well to draw more air.

Interesting..thanks for sharing. It would be nice if someone came out with a CAI for this car (Injen, etc.).

The car runs great and has a little intake sound. On the exhaust the car has a resonator just behind the converter. This will be removed. I am doing a cat back system with 2.5" pipe and a turbo muffler.

Are you going to dyno the car before and after? I would be interested in knowing what the actual stock wheel HP is of this car.

A also have a set of 20" CABO rims ordered with 245/35/20 for them.

Could you post a link to the rims? I have been looking at several possibilities and have yet to make a final decision .

My last project is to look into the lowing springs. I want to drive it for a while with the 245 tires to make sure they clear good before I lower it. I will try to post pictures once my wheels come in.

Please do post some pics! I want to check out all of the mods you mentioned above, as they all sound great.

I second that. I am experimenting with several ideas related to that.
