Seems the exhaust fumes after adding my test pipe is 'yellowing' my tips. Any suggestions on cleaning those up? I have some compound/polish I am going to use this weekend and hopefully that helps.
How did you get that? If you make it really easy on the Po-Po, and show them respect, they typically let you off with a warning. If you don't, then they just give you a ticket, and you're back on your way.
the putting keys on the dashboard sounds pretty serious in my opinion. where i am, we just wait in the car and wind down the window.
haha yeah man. seriously putting keys on the dashboard sounds a little too much.. It's not nessecary.. at least where i live. Turning the engine off i agree with though.
Is it worth getting a 70mm berk hfc or 70mm tp with a 75mm exhaust and a PLM header? I was thinking of selling the exhaust, not buying a cat, and getting a berk single. It has a smooth transition from the collector to the 3 inch pipe
Thanks. I'm going to wait for Invidia to ship me the CEL adapter (apparently, my TP with CEL fix didn't come with the CEL fix since they were out of stock on the fix itself. They are supposed to ship it out to all those who ordered when they get a shipment in).
If that doesn't work, then I'll look into something like this or the BLOX version.
All in all, I'm very impressed with the butt dyno results. I flashed my flashpro with the Toda header tune, and it definitely has a lot more midrange and overall just feels peppier throughout the whole powerband. I did a quick datalog session, and A/F was in the 12's across the board, so not bad. I had a very busy weekend and unfortunately didn't have much time to tinker w/ it, but I will over the next month. The exhaust tone is certainly a bit more raspy (more like the 350z/g35) now, but it's not bad imo. Overall I'm very impressed with the gains. I only have a gutted stock intake, TP, and flashpro. I'll have to make some datalogs and take a look at them. But just figured I'd post my "review" here.
Kinda pointless/dumb if you ask me.. How about just getting a quieter exhaust? It essentially uses a butterfly to block the exhaust flow to quiet it down. Of course, even with the plate fully open, it's still blocking airflow.
Here we go folks. Recieved it and installed yesterday.
The final verdict:
The smell doesn't bother me much since I've been around race cars the last 10-15 years of my life. Kinda used to it.
No CEL as of yet while I've got about 25-30 miles. My friend told me to keep an eye on it for the first 200-300 miles. If it doesn't get tripped by then then it probably won't.
Car sounds so good. Sounds like an exotic w/ a hollow echo-ey sound that exotics have. Whoever has the Greddy SE exhaust, If you thought that your exhaust sounded good w/ a stock cat the sound will blow your mind if you get this test pipe. Car sounds So Fawkin' good. My friend drove my car around yesterday after the install and even he said that he didn't wanna stop driving it due to how good it sounded.
That is all
This is the exact set up that I want. I would love to hear a sound clip if you have one.
