I thanked all of your posts. Let me know if I missed any. Thanks!

But really, for the numbers, use vinyl. I have vinyls from June on my windshield still, and they're even surviving the ice scraper.

Looks like I'll be around long term

The Toyota Supra is going to start at $70000 cdn. Too rich for my blood. Let the FRS build continue.

Was wondering if anyone can offer any advice on an aftermarket exhaust that is nice and loud when doing some spirited driving but quiet/no drone during normal road/highway driving? Also does installing an aftermarket exhaust void the warranty?

Thanks

I have the Greddy EVO3 catback and with the baffles in it is very nice toned and no drone. It is 2.7" dia pipe too.
Depending on your future plans with FI etc, you may want something that fits well tuning wise.
@Slick can advise and there is extensive discussion right here on this forum. Do a bit more searching and you might learn a bit more about what your possibilities are in the future.

No warranty issue esp with catback only

Come out to the first meet of the spring and you will be able to hear many combos. Along with Kens Greddy, Chads has the whole kit, Andre's has the OFH with stock exhaust, mine will have the OFH with perrin 2.5 resonated, Chris will have the 3 inch perrin on his, Kenny has a hot new set up as well etc etc.

Looking at changing out my exhaust system as well. I have the Invidia N1 and it's great in the city but drones like crazy at speeds above 110km/h.

I have my exhaust system with the ecutek tuner kit right beside my bed.. some times i cuddle with the mid pipe.. is this normal?

My rule for taking my car out is, as soon as the drive way has zero snow on it, i will take the car out.. even though i plow, theres still a bottom layer...

Can spring please come sooner? if mr ground hog says we have a longer winter, get me his address, im going to go have a talk with him with mr shotgun.

I found the exact wheels I want, going to wait until after I file my taxes to place my order with Andre, see what happens there!

LOL at @Ft86Chris.

Slippery out there today.

I was doing about 80 on the 417 westbound and could feel that the car was just on the edge of losing grip if I went any faster. Sure enough, there are three accidents between Maitland and Woodroffe with cars that have spun out. One that hit the center median and spun back to the inside.

saw someone in a mazda 3 who ran up a snow pile, .. which was odd because the road went straight, and option to turn left or right into neighbourhoods.. he was on my right side, far side at the stop sign.. well.. what used to be a stop sign. the car was pointed towards the sky .. how the hell did he get up that snow bank? i mean i used to beat the crap out of my old car in winter.. but.. never did i end up on the top side of a snow pile.. I should of taken a pic. car was like this - /:||| the sland line and dots are the car.. im creative i know.

Perrin is a great choice, I went with 3" catback resonated.

Online it sounds awesome, so I am waiting for spring and once we all meet i will have it on, hoping its not loud, I want headers, but drone and sound level are important to me as well, because warmer months its an outdoor car, and well, i don't want my neighbors leaving any nice.. designs i should say on my "BAE"
