It's more important to us that you're happy and yourself than to try to be something you're not just to try to fit in. It took a lot of courage for you to do what you did and I'm confident I can speak for the G crew that you're still cool as **** in our book
Well said

You didn't know that????? All the ARK owners were trying to come back defent the exhaust and say that FI was a Magnaflow knockoff too when the ONLY thing Tony used from Magnaflow was the Xpipe which he discountinued using about a year ago and created his own, which turned out to be 100x better anyways.
No I had no idea I haven't look much into exhaust since my focus was on aesthetic mods. The HKS design is actually better since the dual chamber mufflers don't hang as low as ARK does. I love the sound of the two systems, but from what I could research so far, only HKS was designed with TT consideration in mind. This is giving me a headache. **sigh**

Man I should have went with the Ark grip .. the DTS cant handle the HFC's. With the Grip I can run an X pipe after the cats and get rid of the hiss and rasp.. gonna have to sell my exhaust over the winter and pick this up.. Guy has a FI with the extra magnaflow x pipe on the driver forum for sale ... wish I could pick this up then my exhaust would be perfect..

This year I def learned that research reasearch research before buying ANYTHING... f^k spending needless money.

Straight up! Definitely gotta have an overall vision for the car too or you'll end up buying needless parts.

Yea lol. My mom was like whatever and my dad was like "Don't go around advertising this. You will lose 75% of your friends"

I like reminding him that I have yet to lose one. Current generations are a lot more accepting than past ones.

It was alright I thought... Definitely shows aspects of what people go through that you don't think of see everyday though. Definitely worth seeing.
