Thank you TJ! It's a hidden spot in West Palm Beach.

For a turbo setup I'd say surprisingly loud and a bit raspy. You be the judge:

Thanks for the video! You said you wanted a louder exhaust, are you happy with it?

I thought it sounded very nice as you were pulling away - love the little exhaust pop/backfire! It has that "HKS sound" to it!

Thanks man! I love the growl but passed 4k rpm it gets reeeeeally loud, like a straight pipe, no drone though. I drove around for a week to give it chance but ended up putting back my old Legamax (which I took the opportunity to give it a nice polish).

Replaced the ducktail spoiler with a Stillen trunk lip. Needed it mainly to cover the 6 holes from the OEM spoiler and I liked its subtle looks. I got plans for an additional, much larger component for the trunk

Been working on this wing project for a while and it has been hinted but this is the first actual post. I was inspired by the '90s JGTC Supra GT500s.
Luckily I was able to source a carbon replica of the limited edition TRD Type-R wing blade, which looks exactly like the race car but scaled down for street applications. So I'm fabricating the mounts and side plates from the ground up using nothing but pure carbon fiber. Still a lot more work to do but finally taking shape.

Great effort just does not flow well with our cars.

Thank you for the honest feedback. I'm definitely playing it riskier with this addition than any other of my previous mods. It won't be everyone's cup of tea, but I think I can pull it off as a whole package. Speaking of which, I also got new wheels:

Those wheels look good with the car
