Looks slow.

Yeah- I think that design is definitely putting a priority on loud and fast. But I'm biased after racing loud cars forever, I just have zero interest in a loud street car.

That is the most doap exhaust I've ever seen

WigglingWaffles 02-06-2018 01:20 PM

I absolutely love that exhaust cut out. Ive never seen it done that way, 11/10

JohnAdams 02-06-2018 04:58 PM

The quality is amazing.

KMiata 02-06-2018 05:02 PM

What? You didn't like it before? Where is that temporary ban button? Lol.

Stopped by the shop today to take a look. Looks so much cooler and person..the pictures do no justice. 2 issues noted.

This is the fuel pump...it was intermittently working so he opened it up and took a look...fucked up as expected so he's going to wire up a custom connector with a relay I believe so I don't have this fucking shit going on in the fuel tank. Other issue thats just sorta annoying is the front seal on the transmission is leaking...there is a small drip under the trans...not the end of the world but just annoying...Im unsure what Ill do with this.

And for those waiting to hear the exhaust here ya go...only two modes right now...full open and full closed...variable not programed yet. What I can say is full open is stupid loud and full closed is stupid quiet...I love it...cant wait to play with the variable settings to have that bitch rage under throttle and boost.

Super happy with everything.

Scaxx 02-06-2018 09:01 PM

Wow. That is quite the difference between those two!

sonofthehill 02-06-2018 11:20 PM

Amazing difference.

Maybe I better open my tank and do bulkhead connectors.

Nice exhaust sound

Thats not common at all

Neilv 02-07-2018 12:34 PM

Same thing happened to me in the fall. Out for a nice cruise and just died at a light. All she wrote. (Im running a DW300 if it matters)

got another stock one and running but Ill watch this to see better solutions

TheBandit 02-07-2018 01:02 PM

I'm digging the cutout. Very clever routing. Hats off.

TonyMontana 02-07-2018 03:40 PM

No idea exactly...I have the DW 300 too but its very concerning to see lol.

which is quoted from or worded nearly identical to dw's instructions, however unless you have a clog or pushing it REALLY hard, I don't see you melting wires....

sonofthehill 02-07-2018 05:49 PM

The way that connector is melted looks like it was a loose connection.

TonyMontana 02-07-2018 07:46 PM

Well it’s being corrected so all is good...just pointing it out in case others have a similar experience.
