Very good day! I got my M7 hood grill and exhaust. The sound is a louder an lower than the Milltek, and about the same loudness, but lower tone as Brad's Borla. I masked the hood and painted the area behind the grill and it turned out better than I thought it would. Brad is now thinking of ditching his aero grills. We also replaced Brad's broken front radiator and light mounting frame and also replaced his radiator hoses (with blue silicone) and coolent. A very productive day.

IK24 if I ever detect ping. So far, knock on wood, I've never audibly pinged. I'm always interested in options and solutions.

Race. Evidently, there was very little difference which is why there is only one now.

I thought for a moment, Steve got a grill, meaning a diamond studded platinum mouth piece! I guess I have seen too many rap videos.
