Thanks guys! I was leaning towards the Perrin 2.5" catback resonated but spring time would be a good opportunity to see and listen to the different exhaust setups and decide on what would be right for me. Looking forward to the first meet!

Lol @Ft86Chris I've always wondered how cars end up like that as well when I drive pass them.

Andre is offering a smoking deal on the Perrin 3" catback right now, you get better gains from it with a tune, and in end youd be very impressed. its resonated.. I'd take it over the 2.5 even if you chose not to go with F.I its still a great option..

Check out on google Dyno charts for Perrin 3" exhaust - http://blog.perrinperformance.com/3-...ults-and-tune/

I think he is selling it for 1200$ and he takes credit cards.. you can have it by friday. Probably best option right now!
Talk to Slick for a great deal, with quality parts!

I will have the OFT, OFH and Perrin 2.5 resonated cat back on the car soon. I am hopeful it's not going to be too loud but may be a good reference point for you if you are thinking about going Perrin, and yes I will be supercharging the car next spring to complete the OFT300 package. 280 HP to the wheels is enough for me. Just want to be faster than the Honda Accord and BMW 3 series. I would also PM Andre ( Slick) for pricing on both solutions.

I sold the other 3" to another member already! It was a great deal.

But I can get more... maybe not at the same price though, the US exchange has changed dramatically in 1 month. Will even affect the OpenFlash orders in the future so grab the stock I have (3 headers left and 4 tablets left).

Yay War Amps!

So, about 4 weeks ago my son put my keys (which have both mine and the wife's set on them) on the roof of my wife's car after loading some stuff in the trunk.

He apparently thought I would take them off the roof but since the wife was driving I didn't need my keys. We found this out when we got to our destination and I asked him for the keys. Went back and looked, and nothing.

Package arrived today with my keys in it. It's like winning the lottery!

Not sure what the replacement cost would have been, but for two keys with electronic entry I'm sure it would have been at least a couple hundred bucks.

EDIT: In case you don't see the post title, I have War Amps tags.

Yep, War Amps. I had that in the post header, but didn't include it in the post.

So I noticed this morning that some D-bag doored my passenger side mirror on Fri night, I am guessing it happened in the parking lot at work.... didnt use my car all weekend so I only saw it now.
its not huge damage but its enough! so pissed right now, why are people such careless ****s?! of course, no notes.

anyone know what cost is to replace the mirror housing?

20% discount at Mendes if scion owner club member!
I also got 20% off at Kanata Toyota by mentioning Mendes discount. My drivers side power mirror for the Yaris was $215 with discount - the painted cap will be reused - would cost more to replace everything.

Talk to Jeff Stone at Mendes for more info.

Sorry to hear your FRS got damaged

So like many of you on this thread I thoroughly enjoy winter driving. Of course you know that means a little "testing" of the road conditions after a snowfall. There are a few corners in my neighbourhood that just beg to be driven "slideways" and I, in turn, am happy to oblige them. Being a responsible {cough} adult I am always careful to look well ahead to make sure there are no people to scare, or oncoming traffic/parked cars to avoid in the middle of a drift.

Well this weekend on my approach to a slightly off-camber left hander, I noticed someone walking in the distance. After a brief hesitation I judged that my slide would be over when I reached the person so it would be safe to let one hang so to speak. I managed to trace a lovely arc while keeping the nose of the car very close to the inside snow bank. During the slide I was half-expecting a little derision from my audience. However, the reaction from the teenage boy as I calmly drove passed him after the slide was a huge grin and two thumbs way up! Made my day.
