Cool. Thx for noticing that. I spoke to my mechanic Joe this morning and he says that he noticed it too but did not want to bend anything. He is going to talk a look at it again next week.

My car is not a daily driver. Since I had the exhaust put on I have added a few hundred miles.

My impression still stands. Nice exhaust. Too bad its under the car. You can't see it. Very well made. Nice tips. Its loud in the cabin at highways speeds but not too bad. Its not like when I had the DP and res delete with the JCW exhaust. Now that was too much drone at highways speed.

My advice, get the DP and see if that makes you happy.

I would not spend the money on the full exhaust if I had it to do over. And $500 plus for the tips...that is just insane.

Lots of videos already on Youtube. I am not going to bother with shooting a video.

We will catch up soon enough and you can hear it in person. I will even let you drive it.

I don't care how rich I wish I was I don't think I could ever spend $75 for a dipstick that does nothing more than.......measure oil level. I like CS's stuff but that looks like a solution looking for a problem!
