It is not easy that is for sure. Kinda hard to rush them because you don't want a thrown together piece of junk. Update yesterday is he is working on my motor. Fingers crossed he doesn't need anymore parts.

Yeap, it is like a drug. You just need more and more and more. Why do you think folks always want more, LOL. I would ring that stock GTR's neck and it would still be slow to me. Once you have had fast, it is very difficult to go slow.

I am hoping I did mine right to start with. I want it to seriously scare the hell out of me. I hope I checked that box.

I’m a bit bit picky about the looks as well. I did question about the flex pipes, said there were no leaks, but I’ll reseve judgment until seen in person. It’s only a few hours drive from me.


Unless someone wants to be a gentleman and a scholar and mail me an aam 2.5” true dual exhaust.....
