Put the silencers on. Much better. Quiet drone is almost gone. I cant really tell the performance difference, i think the s2k is slow as it is, just a fun car to drive thats why i bought it.

cel is on for some reason, even though i have the test pipe that has a built in cel fix.

already pulled the fuse to fix reset the ecu, light came off, then came back on

I'm running the same setup.

To fix the cel you will need to go to any auto parts store and purchase 2 spark plug non foulers.

Jack the car back up and install them before the invidia testpipe cel-fix.

I've added two images of my car to help show you.





Hope this helps.

Install the two foulers, then reset the code. You'll be good as new. Only a rare few will still pull a cel. I have been over 3000 miles since this fix without a cel.

never had just the catback on, put it all at once, and i cant imagine the drone being worse then it is with the test pipe. its pretty wicked.

but after the silencers the drone is almost gone, which is nice. and the invidia silencers didnt give it that terrible silencer sound. sounds nice.


overall im very pleased with it, and the performance, even with the silencers still out performs stock by a ton

ill try that cel fix ur referring to.

Thanks,


Marc
