Day two: when I got to work and shut down, I averaged 42 MPH and 28.3 MPG. 35 miles with hills. Bending oil smell gone now. I had a white souped up Supra come up next to me and started throttle chopping his car to make it backfire. I assume it was because the exhaust looks nice, or sounds nice, or both.

I drive an AT in this car, and the manual downshift with the rev matching is so much more enjoyable now that the engine is sounding through those FI pipes. I keep thinking I am done talking about the install, then I find something else I like about it.

The other cool thing is I am really starting to respect that ECU we have. Every time I throw something at it, it answers the call.

I Love This Car.
Ever consider doing HFCs?
