I just installed the Cusco pedal last week and attended a track day. Very noticeable difference. Do yourself a favor pull the pedal assembly out of the car and attach the pedal extender on a bench. Super easy off the car but I couldn't imagine doing it in the car due to the limited space. 2 10's(or 12's, I don't recall) and 1 connector and it pulls right out.
I may add some washers behind the mounting assembly to raise the height up about 2-4mm's as well at some point. |

Hey hey thanks for the reply. And thanks for the welcome back! I havent installed it yet but the concept kind of makes sense. From what i read the stock hangers cancel out the exhaust resonance for the stock exhaust. The new ones i got cancels out / dampens the resonance for after market exhausts. Im assuming since its a lot deeper. Which in turn lessens the droning. Part# is: 44066AJ010 if youre interested Ill definitely put my thoughts here once i install them (maybe this weekend)

Thoughts on the "JDM" Exhaust Hangers:
In case you missed it, i am referring to these So I installed it just now and drove around a few times, i did notice that the drone inside the cabin quieted down a little bit but not enough to make it worth importing from Japan I would assume it just changed the frequency of the drone to make it more bearable but what I dont like about it was it introduced a different set of noise inside the cabin: Rattle Somehow there's more panels rattling with this exhaust hangers compared with the stock one. i couldn't identify where it is to the point i already deleted my 3rd brake light and there's still rattle around 3k RPM range Currently debating whether to put the stock back or not. Might depend if i can find the rattle.

Cusco Pedal Installed
Thanks to @2.2Lude 's suggestion i was able to install the Cusco Pedal a lot easier than if i left it inside the vehicle. Literally had to juggle between the extender and the actual pedal just to align it properly. I also added 2 washers before i installed the pedal back. and as you can see on the previous picture, i added a washer on the pedal stop just to account for the height change. Overall i think it's a good mod since the throttle is a bit far for me. Definitely need to adjust my footing just so I'm not braking + throttling unless heel-toeing. Another skill im trying to get is how to heel-toe. hopefully this extender would help with that!
