fark me, that looks smoking hot!!!!! That is sort of what I want, however I will be using the XR8 exhaust tips.

That should keep it low note and not to loud, but still allow it to flow well when the GTX3576r is installed.

what dump and cat is that? Is the cat 100Cell?

Just out of curiosity, if you want to try and take the car over the pits once the mods are done to get it certified, can our cars be setup with two 200cel cats?

I am just making sh*t up here and don't know much about exhausts, so don't laugh.

My Thinking is that after the split from the dump each 3" pipe could have it's own cat. With two cats the system should flow better and not have much restriction.

It would mean that the car could or might pass over the pits, when it comes to the 5 gas test?????

Is that even possible?

ohh I wish it did mate, but you wrong there. they are doing these 5 gas emmisions test and they can tell when you using E85 and still fail you in WA.

Just ask Phillmeup. He will tell you what it is all about over an hour long conversation over the phone. I just cant believe the sh*t has been through lately.

My question still stands though. can two cats be used?

I just purchased a second hand rear bar insert and got them to cut that when they fit the exhaust.

Its a twin 2.5" exhaust, with quad tips, not a quad exhaust.

I prefer the quads. Cars with single side exhaust tips look uneven. Nice and symmetrical.

I tuned on 98 as no E85 near me for regular fills.

Its been a few weeks, and now it feels like I need more power :)

After driving out of Autotech I was like, this will be plenty. Now looking for the next step, maybe new turbo etc. Maybe some Brembos that aren't stupidly expensive.

Hmm decisions....

It's always the way........ get a bit of power and looking for more soon after [emoji23]. An all to familiar story so I say - go for it.

Agree with Matt about brakes. I went the Brembos on all 4 corners and boy it's expensive so look at pads and rotors keeping the stock calipers but def do recommend the braided lines (only about 250 for 4)

Also doing this will give you a much larger choice of wheels if you want to change them in the future

Thanks guys.

Sorry yeah I have the upgraded pads and rotors, I think they are the T2 or T3 with the pads which Matt from Racebrakes recommended.

At first they were great, shudder was gone for a month or two, then the shudder came back. Replaced the front pads, shudder went, then came back again. And this is aftermarket pads and rotors. Its ridiculous that a standard car will shudder so bad at speed.

The car doesn't stop too bad with the setup, but the shudder is killing me and the only real reason I am looking to get something different on the front.

The shudder is generally only about 80kmh and above where its very noticeable. Would be nice if there was a solution without going brembos. It just seems that when I replace pads its good for a bit and back to the same old shudder.

I don't track it or 'use' the brakes much so I don't know why they are going out so quick. If I tracked it I could understand, but I'm actually quite nice to them :)
