OnkelC's Odd Couple (one GT 86 and a Hybrid)

[chaoskaze]

No new headers? Exhaust & intake have pretty minimal increase of hp 😁

Flywheel I heard it's really good with stock clutch. How you feel with that?

[OnkelC]

flywheel is a lot louder/chatterish than stock, in combo with the new clutch and cover, it has become more difficult to not stall the car at start from traffic lights etc.

As for the header, there would be a lot of money and time involved to get one legalized over here, so that's not an option at the moment.

Same as here in Norway.. buuuut nobody said that it gotta be legal
Just get a catted one, and that should pass emissions and sound if you just put in the catted front pipe if you have removed that one

just last week, an UEL, catted, TÜVable variant has been introduced to our market, soooo tempting

Any more news about that TÜV header? And

Ahh, too bad.. Hopefully someone manages to make one soon!
Or else I'll just get a JDL UEL catted header, that hopefully will go unnoticed through the controls..

Would you do the TRD lightweight clutch and flywheel again, worth the cost for the performance or pass?
