I didn't have time to do anything other commuting this whole week. Went for a fun drive to try JRSC this evening after work. I fell in love with the car even more.
- Stock exhaust started to growl like an aftermarket cat back just as much as I wanted. No need for exhaust upgrade for me.
- The car wasn't alive below 4000 rpm, now it is a beast above 2500. I need to relearn driving my car. It will be fun since it feels like a totally new car.
- The supercharger whoosh is awesome, awesome, awesome!

It's a custom tune using open-source tuning. Good old tactrix. Thank you!

Mine is in th house. Just had to read it once to remember the basics. If I need something specific I use this thing called the index to find the topic.

It looks cool but if you are listening radio, the reception of this antenna is weaker.

You can buy a salvaged OEM shark fin antenna on Ebay in any color and paint yourself. That is what I did after trying this one.

Sure, I would be happy to do it. Do you know a way of adding an internal antenna on one of the windows?

I'm sure there is an aftermarket solution somewhere. Or make one yourself. Maybe attach a long wire to your antenna hookup and attach it to the back glass by the headliner?
