Sounds good Bro!
Thought it was gonna be more high pitched. But it still has a good throaty sound.
Funny your car and mine sound a lot alike. Must be the Ti exhaust.

Thanks!
Yeah, it has to be the header back system. I'm really happy with the outcome either way!

You killing me too!
Seriously, what’s being done? Top secret? Besides size, what’s to mod?
Curious what the turn time will be from icode, heard they were super slow about getting stuff done.

Funny you mentioned cf drive shaft. I’ve been pondering that for years.
Since I’m a track junkie, I’m always searching for throttle response. Never have followed through though..
QA1 would def be a good starting point. Pls lmk what they have to say. May be make two?!?!

(what’s up Wesley, thought aliens abducted you, glad you’re ok)

No, no top secret Just boring it out. I'm not sure if they modify the electronics at all and I am trying to find out if they do. I am communicating with them through my contact there in Japan.
I have also talked to someone in QA1 and he said a full custom CF driveshaft for our application isn't doable right now. I said I'll even send them a factory driveshaft for R&D! They do have 3 bolt flanges though that we may be able to adapt to our flanges but I have yet to look more into that.

Thanks to Konichiwa and Mingofish for the info on these plugs. Replaced my low mileage factory ones (just under 13K miles) and first thing I noticed was the car fired up so quick! The fastest I’ve ever
heard the car fire up.

Got the parts from Japan! Probably won’t have time to install until after the holidays though.

Well? Any butt dyno feed back of the throttle body? Or you didn’t drive due to weather?

haven’t driven it yet. I just installed it before I went out of town. I should be back in a couple days but I doubt the weather will be nice enough to take car out
