Going to give the roof spoiler one last chance during the uni holidays in a few weeks
Today I fitted my Phat dump pipe, pretty straight forward apart from a strange leak where it meets the mid pipe, fairly confident I fixed it but I'll keep an eye on it. Made a great difference to the car, obviously no tune yet and I don't think there's much of a power increase, although the turbo now comes on faster and harder than before. Driving in S mode feels like the car used to in S#, and now S# really has some bite to it!
Sound wise it hasn't made any difference at idle and normal driving, but flat out above 3500rpm you can hear the turbo really pump, makes the exhaust a bit raspy (not in a bad way). Hopefully a bigger centre pipe will deepen it a little when I do that down the track.
Also picked up a second grille for my car thanks to Rob
Going to make a deep mesh grille out of it during the holidays.
