yeah ive seen those, i didnt know if they still make the aluminum stackable ones. I hope its easy to route the cable from the o2 sensor. I found a friends shop to do the welding of the bung though i think he said he only has a MIG welder so it will not be pretty welds. Few more things to sort out before i start putting the kit on. We need to talk about tuning and how we are going to make it all work. I can rent a local dyno here. Dont know if you are comfortable remote tuning or when you can come into town.

Got some work done this week. Going to be a slow process but should be wrapping it up in few weeks. In mean time i got to replace my motor mounts. No wonder my shifter was floping around like a fish out of water. this what the mounts look. 2 piece mod FTW
Thank God for gravity or my engine would have fallen out.
Next i got a 1320 test pipe through ballade sport. I had my friend custom weld another bung so i can fit my PLX wideband in there too.
I pulled my old O2 sensor from my oem cats and figured out why it went bad after just 3k miles.
Turns out the first half of the cat core came loose probably due to too much heat at the track and hit the sensor bending it. Thought i could get it replaced under warranty but after i say the sensor no way they are going to replace that for free

Went to another track day and didnt make it home in one piece this time. At first i thought my drive shaft let go. Ordered a replacement only to find out it was the diff that ate itself to bits and was basically seizing up
Had to tow it to my mechanics shop
Later on he drained the diff fluid and well looks like its more than fluid that came out
