Not a professional but do a few HPDE events.


Back on topic just wanted to point out the difference between the 2 Spec L exhausts is more than just the tips.
Let me guess. That 3% weight reduction turned it into a Porsche. I'm not arguing that reducing weight isn't beneficial, because it is. It's just that the vast majority of people will never be able to notice a difference. Making all decisions based on weight is silly. You won't notice 7lbs, but you will notice the way it looks and sounds. You mod your car however you want, just offering perspective
