sorry to hear, pint. does that have something to do with allergies? i know some areas allergy season is different. mr.alcheng mentioned his allergy season starts now where as my farmland area in the middle of the country, we're pretty much done.

with that said, would Clartin work? it does wonders for me during late March - early May...

Claritin is a miracle drug and the only stuff that really works for me withouit making me feel like the "boy in the bubble" or an ADHD teen after 17 espressos.

Motordyne ART pipes installed!!

Demon bolt kicked the shops ***!!! Took 2.5 hrs to get the 2 bolts of that are accessed from the engine bay with a long extension. HAd to saw, heat, dremmel etc.

Anyways, worth the effort for me

Sounds amazing, more rumble/burble, better low end response! That low end torque is back. I can get the tail sideways in 2nd with VDC on!! haha, so ya, very happy with this mod.

Monday I get Uprev and dyno, so hope to really fine tune these mods and see a nice gain.

Can you comment more on how it sounds paired with the FI CBE?

Yes!

So I have the FI CBE with Carbon Fiber Mufflers and 18" resonators. I sometimes felt like I wouldn't mind it a bit louder but felt 12" resonators would maybe be too loud and I went 18" as its the best option to keep the cabin fairly quiet.

This was like the final piece of the puzzle.

Adds even more to the nice deep exhaust note of the FI and NOT a hint of rasp! Its sounds much meaner but not over the top louder, you can notice it, it just adds to the current note of the car.

When the mechanic went around the block, I didn't know they finally got it hooked up...I just heard beautiful notes and ran outside...I drooled.

Plus I have heard a 370Z with same FI exhaust (but SS) different HFC...did not sound anything like this..got more high pitched

So i am 100% happy with this, crossing fingers for no leaks, but super happy

Thanks for the review! That's exactly the information I wanted to hear!

Yeah I started really feeling bad for the mechanics but these guys are awesome. And ya, now no longer an issue lol.

I had my beach volleyball league tonight and missed my first match, so that sucked. But the drive to the beach courts was awesome!

When we try to talk people into spending 6 figures with us -- which takes many months, we really want to prove they should.
Mr.onzedge, glad to hear it went smoothly…

With the proper tools, the "demon bolt" is not difficult at all.

haha, wish I had you there then "Master of the Demon Bolt" lol

I think one of the funniest things they tried was one guy underneath lifted car with a gas torch

another on a ladder with a tool in the engine bay

guy with torch had a cigarette in his mouth by the way lol.
