Update 10/29


My satin coolant overflow and power steering tanks from SxExCx came in today and had to put them in. Got to say cleaned up the engine bay a lot.

Your car looks great man. Love all the mods you did and that exhaust sounds badass.

One question though, was the low end grunt loss from the 3 inch piping really noticeable? Im planning to get the megan catback (can't afford fancy stuff you got. lol) and this worries me.

Thanks gents. Locksmith read the OP this thread was initially started as a joke but the masses wanted more.

And D, yes it was noticeable, but the top end gains were well worth the switch. The car pulls like a beast all the way to red line. And I didn't pay a lot for the y back part of the exhaust. I'd be embarrassed to tell you how much Tony let it go for.

Nah it came that way, looks like the welder let his torch slip a bit and scarred the tank. I could have been a d!ck and sent it back but it's not that big of a deal to me. For someone super **** it might be though (not naming any names).

I missed the epic part.

Aluminum reservoir tanks look much better than plastic. The more plastic junk eliminated underhood the better the engine bay will look.

Great job on your mods so far.

The epic part was originally a joke, but yep the tanks look a lot better.

$313 shipped. I got the OG prototype muffler that isn't as beautiful as the production pieces. Don't hate the player, hate the game.
