Well it's headers time. Picked up a set of IS350 RWD Headers from another member. Going to go down to PPE and have them install them. Definitely going to be putting resonators in. The drone with a complete straightpipe and headers is going to be crazy.

Congrats on the purchase and its progress - very nice! Does your RGB DRL swap additionally have the option of : white DRL active to switch to sequential amber turn signals?
I've seen a couple companies that once offered but no longer, asking before I reach out to Gerxiong89, thanks in advance!

The days of being a non FBO RC are over. Just got my headers installed by PPE Engineering. The exhaust setup is as follows currently. PPE Headers + 2.5" Straightpipe with an X pipe. heres a vertical video. ignore the ginger
ITS CRAZY LOUD!
Gonna give it about a week before I put some high flow cats in... I also don't want to roll up to inspections smelling like a gas bomb. As well as, I could definitely do without the rasp.
Edit: What should I put in to get rid of some of the rasp? Cats or resonators?
She's ready for a track day...

Wow that is intense, but I can't say I wouldn't do the same given the given the opportunity lol. I think it's the cats that help with the rasp. With that back in the exhaust, hopefully some of the lower end sound comes back to make it deeper. Was that you?

Bringing my car and the stock wheels to Discount Tire today. They've always been helpful, they were actually the ones who set me up with my PS4S's. Having them repair my Niche Wheels and throw my stock wheels on in the mean time.
Cats for my exhaust have been ordered, theyre supposed to be here today. Will have those installed later this week.

And on the not so happy side of things, I threw a CEL this morning. have a look-see
That last one scares me. The banks being too lean is a symptom of having the PPE headers, but my RR tune shouldve taken care of it no? Either way Im already in contact with Rafi and he is helping me get it all taken care of. I just really, really, dont like that last code.
These are the possible causes.
Faulty Port Injector Fuel
Port Injector Fuel harness is open or shorted
Port Injector Fuel circuit poor electrical connection
I was forced to put some Valero fuel(91) in the car the other night, only half a gallon as I usually only fill up at Shell or The Thumb. Going to fill up with a splash of 100 in my usual 91 at the thumb this afternoon.
I turned off the CEL and it hasnt come back. lets hope this fuel is my remedy to P1170. Im sure Rafi can help me out with the lean bank issue.

Well as always, they were helpful. Between me forgetting lugnuts yesterday and fixing a leak in my PS4S, they helped me out. Ended up ordered a new wheel from them because of a bend in mine.

Alright! Cats are in. Reduced a ton of rasp, but still might do something for a little less rasp in the future.
Onto the fun stuff. I started working on custom sub boxes, and air setup for my trunk. I had the Terminator subs from amazon and a boss amp. Time to get away from that stuff. I was looking for some speakers that were a lot more high quality, so I settled on some 4ohm 8" dual voice coil kicker subs. Got two of them. To go with them I started making some sub boxes. I followed what @specONE did a little bit. Used cardboard to get the shape, then cut out of wood. The one thing I cant get it the fiberglass. I tried and it was too difficult. Any ideas? I'm still thinking.
Need some way to make the backing of the enclosure. I made the bottom piece and face piece out of wood. Also the thing that covers the spare and tools I made out of wood too, didnt snag a pic though.
Car gets its wheels repaired today also! Lots of things happening!
