| Someone was nice enough to actually just give me an exhaust system last weekend. How awesome is that? It's a Monster Sport cat back, but it's only 2.75". Still, free exhaust is awesome exhaust! I haven't spent much time on alignment and it's slightly off center. Also (you might be able to tell from the pics) it's setting about 3" too far behind the bumper. This is partly because the JDM bumpers as shorter than the USDM, but made worse be the fact that my DP is apparently too short. Even my stock exhaust was hanging back about 2" in to the bumper. So, when my resonated test pipe comes in next week, I'll be taking it down to Walker to get it extended to compensate. So, by next weekend I'll (hopefully) have a full exhaust installed from the head to the bumper. Then, I'll tweak my tune a little and see what I can pull out of it. | |

| Thanks. I got on it a little this evening and it sounds great. I can't wait to ditch the cat and see how it opens up then. | |

| The toe was really off on mine when I got it. That alignment saved my tires. However, since I've been auto-xing the outer tread blocks are getting really worn. This is because I got it aligned for the best tire wear and due to that I go in to crazy positive camber in corners. I'll be getting a nice auto-x alignment soon so look out ... I'll be even faster! | |
