We're very excited to get started building out own product line and have partnered with great local fabricators to bring quality USA built parts. So far out of all the FRS/BRZ cars I have seen here at nationals, ours is the only one with an exhaust and the only vendor actually racing a car. |

This sounds great. Seems to be quiet as you described for daily driving purposes. If I were to get an exhaust, as of right now it'd be either this or the Perrin.

We should have the new tips on this weekend and some more photos and then off to production we go.
We'll get DB readings here before it goes up with pricing. So far put 1500 miles on it as we have been traveling a lot for a couple race events. I really enjoy it. |

Correct V2 and V3 will be lighter, but also louder.
We've been around the scene a long time and honestly if you DD your car at all the V1 will be the only one I will recommend for a DD. But then again I am getting old. V2 = AutoX / HPDE car with very very limited DD use. V3 = BECAUSE RACE CAR |

FWIW I heard this car in person at nationals and the exhaust note is prefect. Its mild (as in not too loud but you can definitely hear it) in sound for volume but has the good sound you can get out of these cars. Definitely one to consider IMO.

I've found it to be something I can live with on and off the course. It's back on the hoist now so enjoying it has come to an end for a bit. |
