Dont let it touch your car with a "Twin Turbo" decal still on it.

It gives your car aids. :lol:

Haha the K2 gear one is a nice shiny blue and I was planning on taking the decal off and replacing it with my STI engine cover badge :)

Hopefully not much longer. Noticed much of a difference even without the splitter? I've asked Kevin if he's had a chance to investigate how to install it into a prefacelift - otherwise will start looking at hyperflow or perrin (good exchange rate but shipping might be a killer).

hey rome...

the car has really progressed nicely from when you first joined...loving it..!

i know you are looking at the k2 exhaust (as am i at the moment) but how do you find the sti quads with the phat dp installed...thinking in terms of sound and performance?

im kinda tempted just to stick with the sti quads and just do the dump and centre pipes so would be interested to hear your thoughts...

Definitely a BIG difference with the intercooler, have noticed much more lately. The car feels like a rocket and it is no where near one yet :P Kevin thinks the splitter will be in by the weekend so I'm hoping that with more airflow directly onto the intercooler it will make it just that little bit better!!

Thanks mate, so's your car!!

Dump Pipe with STi Quads...if you aren't too fussy on performance there is quite a big jump in response you notice it straight away. The car feels more alive and doesn't feel as restricted, it almost feels like the revs are going to jump off the meter :P

As for noise, little increase. You can notice it a bit more every now and then, but there is not much more noticeable noise. Personally, the reason I'm going for the K2 exhaust is because I've been told it has a nice note and is not too much louder. I'm not a fan of big exhaust noise! I just can't wait for the increase in response ;)
