Awesome looks aside, how much does that steering wheel weigh?

I don't have the slightest idea! Not unsprung weight..so I didn't pay much attention.


Happy to weigh it once I get it

 

If it's not too much trouble. I'd just be interested to see how much it weighs vs. OEM with all that CF. I'm assuming that is real CF of course.

Every ounce counts! lol

I suspect you're going to have a CEL in a few days, from one or both O2 sensors being out of range, after which you reset and it doesn't come back. That seems to be the typical post-install scenario.

Let us know, OK?

 

Hmm, I hadn't thought about that. What was that Y-pipe feeding, a Top-Speed mid-pipe/resonator and axel-back?

The VQ 3.5 really liked a 2.5" exhaust, and even the 3.0" exhaust... if top-end was your thing, or you were boosted, and don't mind the endless drone. But I was under the impression that the 3.7L engine was well matched with 2.25" piping.

 

even with the j-bung? I hadn't heard that. good to know!

 

I had FI RHFC's and I got nary a CEL. It's got a Jbung welded on correctly.

 

sorry, I'm in stealth mode - no car listed! I have an 08 sedan. Given that I have the g37 sedan front end, g37 navigation, g37 console, and g37 door panels..i usually hang out here. More similarities, heh also, driver is dead slow.


so, 3.5 for me, ergo the 2.5


Yes, before I just had the ts mid-pipe-back. Now its FI RHFC - ts y pipe - ts mid-pipe back.

 

Encouraging report.

 

Thats pretty hot if you ask me.. how much was it if you don't mind me asking or shoot me a PM... I like that steering wheel

 

Looks like the Access Evolution steering wheel and not the Carbon Fiber Element version which if it is the AE that bad boy is expensive. I believe ijahman (white TT Sedan) has this steering wheel?

That is beautiful though and wouldn't mind owning one great pick up!

Okay just found the ijahman post with the AE Steering wheel and they are not the same. I like this one much better!

 

That's what I suspected when you mentioned that driving course you want to take. Cool deal man. Law Enforcement isn't what it use to be. Too many people disrespect law men/women now a days and you hear of too many officers being shot. Well good luck in the private sector. It should be easier, safer and hopefully a much higher pay for you. Have fun taking that course. I've been thinking about taking some courses myself but no time to do it though.

 

Loving the sways! Carved up a little pavement coming back from lunch and I'm going to leave early now to go and do it again.

Exhaust is both up and down the revs yes. Using DS mode the downshifts are much more pronounced now, I imagine with a 6mt they would be even more so. I feel like I'm getting a bit of a burble at times though I have not really noticed the decel hiss.

Brad, I have nothing objectionable to say about them at all. I really like the tone, but will give additional feedback if anything changes once they bake in. The butt dyno is doing this with a little if this thrown in. To me there is a slight increase in tone but it's a nice slight increase. The perceived added increase makes it that much better. The first time, well the first couple times, the downshift engine brake kicked in I was surprised but not objectionable at all.

Rex, I absolutely love what I'm reading here. Very happy for you, man.

Just to help me put your reactions in context... have you ever modified a car's exhaust before? And how old are you, if you don't mind my asking? PM me if you prefer, or just tell me to f#ck off. I'm good with that, too.

 

Am I the only one who loves the way this car sounds stock? I had an exhaust on my old car and I hated it after a while, especially when I was driving with anyone.
