[HarryBo]

Last update:

Intercoolers
Full catted downpipes
Heat Exchanger
EcuTek custom Tune

Newly added:
AWE Touring Edition Exhaust
Michelin Pilot Sport 4S Tires (on stock rims)
Front: 265/40R19

Update:
All parts installed. Awaiting on AMS to coordinate custom tune dyno time with my installer next week. Driving it in meantime, and wow! Without tune feels like 50-70 hp/tq plus at least. The Michelin's feel same as Dunlops on ride quality, yet grippier, and linear in traction. The 10mm wider on oem rims look right and fit wheel wells fine. No rubbing. Look good too.

AWE Touring Exhaust just right sounds for me. Bit louder than Nismo oem on part and low throttle, more at mid throttle, and much more on heavy. Though damn intermittent rubbing on undercarriage when off throttle and some bumps. AWE telephoned by installer, and no fix. Not often occurs but better if didn't. Will be trying some type of barrier tape. Installer researching.

Overall, very happy. Can't wait till tune done. Will report back when done.

Thanks all!

You likely need to massage & clearance your steel W-brace. It should be very obvious where it's hitting/rubbing.

Thank you. I'll let my installer know.

Hey Harry,

The process to install this system requires finesse as the 3" piping is significantly larger than factory but still must run through small stock pathways, so there is not a ton of room for error. However, if installed properly it should not be making contact with any part of the chassis and we back this up with our fitment guarantee.

Shooting you a PM to get your personal info and ticket number so we can facilitate a solution with your shop and our support team.

Thank you. I'll let my installer know.

stiffer exhaust hangers will help along with the kracka mod

Thanks! Yes, prices hurt. Especially with 40% exchange rate here in Canada. Ouch!

I've got a ton of oem parts in the bin, so maybe sell some if there is a market.

Would be glad to hear how your build goes, once you start.
