Swift springs installed and settled now. Michelin ps4’s come in tomorrow so I’ll have those mounted along with an alighnment. Really looking forward to putting these tires to the test. Car had Ventus v12’s when I purchased it which were low tread and slick. Ordered a racing bucket seat from z1 this afternoon, the stock seat is very comfortable but after sitting in my buddies Recaro seats I realized how little the Z seats hold me.

Reached 100K miles yesterday. Bought her 6 weeks ago with 98K. Love her as my dd while my new 2018 Camry XSE seats in the garage for out of town trips only.

Well I said the heck with it and ordered up a pair of ported/polished throttle bodies, bored out to 65mm to go with the match ported/polished upper and lower intakes. Figured I might as well get it all done while I'm at it. LOL

As the implications of Heller work their way through caselaw, the 1986 GCA should be declared unconstitutional.

Heck, the 9th Circuit declared Hawaii's blanket ban on carry was unconstitional! If that isn't a "pigs fly" moment in American jurisprudence, I'm not sure what would qualify.

PS
I wanna BAR too!

Guns cars and women! Please tell me you had a beer too!

CRiZO · 08-08-2018, 12:05 PM

Had the Rev9 dual exhaust installed this morning. It was $350 shipped and I hope that makes you angry. I'm happy to pay for quality, but I just had to try it since I was considering the HKS Hi-Power for 3x the price.

It's 304 stainless with mandrel bends and the shop commented that the flanges and hardware/gaskets provided were nice ones. The welds and build quality looked really good to me. They said it installed very easily and lined up without a problem.

Chose Rev9 since it looked to be nicer than the other ones on eBay, didn't like how others put the helmholtz resonator's bracket on the bottom. This one puts it on top like HKS does. Also prefer dual walled stainless tips vs the single walled titanium. Was well packaged and shipped from California to Texas without issue.

I was ready to hate it and buy the "real" exhaust, but... it's pretty nice. I'm very pleasantly surprised. Nice rumble at idle, no drone, quite when cruising, loud WOT, a little gargling on the overrun, but it's still breaking in so will see.

Interesting to see how your experience differed. Mine was kinda quiet at high rpms and not beefy also made a weird air rushing sound too, no leaks. Mine also had a drone and it wasn't a nice drone, kinda like what you'd expect from a honda when you get into lower gears but higher rpms. I've since gone with another exhaust that I absolutely love that hasn't left me wanting more besides awaiting my test pipes to compliment

CRiZO · 08-08-2018, 01:09 PM

Honestly I'm still on the fence with it. I wanted something that was just a tad more aggressive than OEM. And to get that "VQ sound" which it did. This one basically changed the entire character of the car though. Used to be all induction and rpms, now it's pretty exhaust heavy. I'm coming from turbo cars, so I'm still getting used to it.

What'd you switch to?
