No, it still has the interior, power windows, etc. It's a header back exhaust with high-flow metal cat (secondary), 2.5" after that. However, being an RA model, there seems to be less sound deadening from the factory than a standard model. I know mine is nowhere near that loud.

The 1.06 time was decent, but it was literally from doing a single lap. We were running both cars, the STI widebody and the BRZ, and simply didn't have the time and resources to do both fully, so concentrated on the STI. More time on the circuit + doing a full strip of the interior and we'd have dropped the times down.
