Default My next mod. I'm crazy.



Something tells me I'm crazy to be spending $1500 US on an exhaust.

Who am I to tell you it's crazy to spend that sort of money on your car?
If it'll give you joy and it doesn't put you in the poor house, why not?

That's what I figure. You have to enjoy the car.

Our dollar is so strong right now, too... which makes it easier to swallow the price.

Looks like I'll be buying some jack stands and a torque wrench so that I can install this thing when it arrives... or I'm going to try and convince you to come help me install it

Well, it took me about 2 hours to get Tim's old system off and my Neuspeed on his car. If the timing was right, roads good, off duty that weekend, I might be persuaded to come up with my tools. It's only a couple hours drive to your house from here?

From your house to mine would probably be about 1:45 ish

I guess I'll just have to see how long it'll take to get the exhaust here first, and go from there

My Fujitsubo took about 2 months from the time I ordered it. Came via Vancouver.
We can talk about it when the time comes.

No, Dylan - you're not crazy b/c I am. I am thinking of ordering the Amuse Dual titanium exhaust next year for $2000 U.S.

I wouldn't mind if it is LOUD at WOT but I hope it isn't too loud with mild cruising speeds. I haven't heard the Amuse exhaust in person as no one around here is crazy enough to invest $2000 into one. However, I really like the weight reduction and look of it; esp the bluish shade! From what I've read on this board, Amuse or Mugen seems to be the way to go.
