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.

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 ******* **** 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.

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

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....

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