Yup exactly once I get a bigger turbo I'm probably done with the car until something wears out and needs replacement

You're def just enjoying the car, you spent so much time and money getting it running again thats why you don't have the bug to mod it. Wait till next summer after it's been stored all winter, you'll be adding the bottle

I did next to nothing to my car this summer, other than some maintenance items, and I still love it.

Would more power be nice? Sure, but the car is running so good I don't want to mess with it.

Enjoy your car... just remember the mess it was to get it running.

oh it was a mess alright haha.

so glad i really have everything honed in right now...

officially, i ordered an '07 radio that's on its way to rains_crusaders house so he can led swap white and red into it and make the screen white, as well as do all the wiring and flash it to make it plug and play to my 06. also he's doing another hvac in red leds for me, since the white leds made the last one blueish.

anyone want the blueish led hvac?

also that reminds me still need a red aeroforce and get rid of the blue

im still SO pissed that the hi-flow spun metal cats make that hissing noise. the new midlength zzp setup sounds like its leaking with the cat and i just can't stand it no matter what. so probably gonna re-do it again with a catless dp. you guys win. hope ur happy

hmmm besides that...

Meh, you will get used to it...

It's even more noticeable with a catless pipe, but the lope of my cams balances that out.

My car sounds fantastic.... Inside and outside. Yes you hear the air flowing through the pipe, but once you get it in your head it's not an exhaust leak, you get over it.

Don't waste your time or money on another setup. Keep what you have.

maybe that's what my car is doing. It sounds ticky/pulsey like a small exhaust leak but maybe it just the airflow in the flexpipe or something.


lol I wish. I'm almost positive that it's a pinhole leak at the vband

A ticking sound is an exhaust leak....

A hiss or woosh sound is the exhaust gasses flowing through the pipe.
