I two do not have a heated garage here in ct, just a covered carport. I have a template made up for a rear diffuser but it's been snowing like crazy so I can't do anything. I did some scale tests with the one I made but my biggest issue is my damn muffler, the only way it would fit is with a 12 degree angle which is too much. I thought about getting turn downs just before the rear axle but I think it might be too loud for the local tracks. My plan is to make it out of FRP then maybe a CF version after I figure out how to make a mould. That rear end is going to be bitchen when finished.

Meg, can you be so polite to post another pic of your ABS delete with the proportioning valve? Like to get an idea of location of plumbing.

Big props man. I have two track days in the next four weeks but after those I will start on this. Looks pretty simple.

Did you have to experiment with the rear bias or do you have any recommendations where to set the proportioning valve?

I think from what I remember, I installed the proportional valve set in the middle of its adjustment, then soon after while driving I gave a bit more to the front with the adjustment cable.

I didn't had much time to go on the track is 2013 but I've drove on the ice and snow and the adjustment has been quite close to perfect.

When I bought the parts needed for the ABS delete, I also bought a Bias gauge setup which I haven't setup yet.

Body update !!!


so Ive been quite lazy for the pass couple week.

It still needs to be glued in place (3M double side tape) and the part itself weight in at 375 grams
If I ever sell my whole single exhaust setup I will either include this one or a new one.

Tomorrow I will have the installed bumper view picture
Stay tuned !!!

New pictures !!

Just a reminder, this is the first version of the Overlay. Its not perfect and I already corrected the issue on the mold.









This is another cool Update of the next project that I started working on this morning... its cold outside so I had to rush a little bit once I got in the garage ! ( it was -15 C )

It wont be a square side corner like it currently is on the top side but more like something how it is on the lower curved plate.
yes, the side wing/plate whatever we call them.. an outside side wall will be included and they wont be hanging without support.
But you get the idea....

Double deck diffuser project.

With this picture you can actually see how aggressive the rear setup will be (should be.. hehe)
Everything in blue will be gone for the diffuser kit !

I hope that was some old plumbing you had laying around.

Seriously, I like your mould support idea.
