Just feels like it struggles a little more in the cold, but no, nothing. No extra turns or additional struggle. I have a tune on my ECU but I really wouldn't think that affects starting. Just the idle issue where I idle a tad higher to prevent that TSB issue.

We're warming back up the next few days so see what it does then.

Yeah I was thinking the weather could have a play to but than again its been colder than this and ive started it with no issues at all. I have my 7500 mile check coming up soon so if it happens again ill just tell them when I bring it in.

Depending on the Lady's work schedule, this time I will be showing up early enough to roll in with everyone for cars and coffee. Oh and finally go around to ordering my drop in... yay cheap mods until tax refund (fingers crossed)

If I am in town - was supposed to be working a project in Charlotte, NC but its been delayed "1-2 weeks". If its the 2 weeks delay then I can make it.

No rasp, a bit of drone but not bad like the stock header. Sounds incredible! Very happy. I'll get an idle video up tomorrow with revs. No GoPro yet.

This is the sound I have been looking for.

I would love to hear it! You can borrow a GoPro of mine if you want to record it. I, on the other hand, think I have an exhaust leak, around the gasket behind the resonator, which is also causing the rattling (it seems). Need to get under there and check some bolts and gaskets soon.

Also need to finish the meet video, just needs to be finalized. Working like a dog though :[

2222 is fun in Austin, lots of hills and turns, but it is a major road. Gotta watch for cops.

Lime Creek is awesome, but it does kick up rocks.

Here's an idle/rev of my N1 setup:

You guys enjoying this weather? I know I am!

F all the haters up north making fun of us with ice. At least it doesn't last long. I hear it's supposed to ice again next week though.

Damn, your car sounds insane! Good choice of exhaust!
