Anyone have pictures of the bottom of their S2k? Did not get a chance to snap any when mine was on the lift at the dealer.

S2KDude-
Here's some pix of my my car at her PDI & when we got the Mugen exhaust put on. Hope this is what you are looking for. Wish our car looked that clean underneath now, she's covered in salt! Eeewwww....



At the dealership when we picked her up!





At King Motorsports, mmmm Mugen......

Juliann, What do you think of the Mugen Exhaust? Power improvement? Sound good? Too noisey while cruising at 60 - 70mph?

Allan-

The Mugen exhaust from King Motorsports is amazing. There is a noticeable power increase around 3500 - 6000 rpms. To me- the car actually feels like it has a bit of torque now.

The sound of the exhaust has just gotten deeper & more "throaty" as time goes by. It's a beautiful tone that is a welcome noise at 60 - 70 mph! I misplaced the radio code after the car car back from the dealearship in December- and had no desire to reprogram it- just wanted to listen to VTECH thru Mugen all day long

Jason Saini did a post comparing our cars Mugen to Greg Stevens' HKS. So go here-

Bass Man-
Unfortunatly the bottom of my car will never look that good again. She's covered in salt residue. The titanium & stainless has a bunch of oxidation from driving on our fabulous salt covered roads in Chicago. I'm gonna try to get it cleaner while we are at the Pro Solo in Ft Myers this week. Hoping I can find that clean underside again.

Jason spent most of Sunday washing the undercarrige in sub-freezing weather. He got the majority of the salt off, but it just seems like it never ends. Once the Penske shocks are on, she'll never see anything resembling salt again. It's too bad- I hate to be one of those people that won't let a car get a little dirty. But after I saw what the salt did to the underside of the car it just made me sick. Oh well, I'll just have to keep driving the TT in the yucky weather!

I've got the frozen hands to prove it! Laying on a concrete slab while washing the underside of a car in 25 degree weather is NOT fun... no matter what anyone tells you, it's NOT fun!

I agree about her not seeing salt ever again... we are lucky enough to have other vehicles, so we might as well preserve the underside of our car.

Too funny I did the exact same thing on Saturday afternoon and I still can't feel the tips of my fingers. Never again!
