Thanks Kody, nice to feel loved bro!

Saying that, guess you may be right about that though! Like a graveyard on this thread.

Still, at least you decided to look!

Good luck with the dyno today, hoping to see some good numbers from you guys.

Gauge pod fits the aperture fine, sadly the gauges don't fit in it though!

Think it can work with a bit more tweaking though.

Thanks guys.

Why no A/C Josh?!

Still have the side vents? Remember I'm in the UK!

Only use A/C to de-mist the windscreen! Lol.

Wow, your F looks great!! Loving the new carbon fiber pieces, seems to have a factory fit and finish!

Also, now that I remembered - did you ever get the H&S exhaust dyno tested? Really curious what the gains look like across the power band.

Regards,
Sameer

Thanks Sameer.

Yes, car was recently dyno'd and made 418.2hp (at the wheels).

I will dig out the prints later and tell you the differences etc.

Here's a video of the run:

IS-F Dyno Run - YouTube

Car made 418.2 at the flywheel.

Last run estimated the HP at the fly as 404.3, so it's gained around 14 from the H&S exhaust.

Not a huge gain, but it's going in the right direction!

Car sounded awesome apparently, but the crappy phone microphone crapped itself again!

Still, sounds pretty tasty I think!

Here's a photo on the dyno, and one of the results. Think that curve looks pretty much spot on.



Here you go Sameer.

Gained 14hp from the current exhaust setup. May gain more if I add an X pipe, but that could also destroy that lovely meaty burble I love. If so, will sacrifice the extra hp, and get it back with the addition of headers and a tune.

Hi there,

so you got 418 flywheel or wheels?
With headers you're completely catless, or do you get highflows for your H&S system?
I'm askin because in interested in the basic bolt ons h/I/e but law in Germany is a ***** when it comes to emissions.
The important ones are the primary cats in the headers right?
Also I'd fancy a tune, but I guess European ECU's are different
