Being formally educated hasn't stopped this guy from being an a$$hole and saying people who intall these are "stupid" and un-educated. I was already aware of what it was and it's lack of functionality. Not that I will ever notice the difference because I don't drive a race car and am fully aware that most if not all off the shelf aero mods are going to affect NOTHING but my fuel economy in a street driven car.

Formal education doesn't make you an expert, it means you can successfully not fall asleep long enough in a classroom setting to pass a test.

Made my own heel-toe pedal this week.

Started with an aluminum plate:


Bent into a curve using my 12 ton press and a small cylinder and gradually working my way down the piece:


Here it is at first, was too wide, so I had to trim it off. Too easy to hit the gas while braking. Held in place by large headed screws that hook around the back side.:


Final size and with grip tape to match OEM pattern (and cover up screw holes):

Installed Nameless header and one piece front pipe 2.5" with cat and Helmholtz. Even though I already liked the sound, it now has a much nicer note to it. No drone but it's loud outside when on the gas. Not too bad at a cruise. It might be the 1st RS1 with this combo and the RS1 cat back. Butt dyno does not detect a big difference. Feels a bit flat down low. But revs more freely and smoother overall. I expect to see the full benefit after I get the tune.

Installed the OpenFlash Header, she sounds lovely paired with a Top Speed Pro-1 Axleback

However before uninstalling the stock header after taking off the skid plat I noticed I have an oil leak somewhere on the drivers side. Oil caked in various spots, I really haven't smelled it or had any functional issues so I hope it's nothing serious or just from a previous oil filter.

Yeah. It actually sounded great. Stuffed the trunk full of seat cushions. Drone eliminated. Barely noticed the difference while cruising.

But I had so many douchebags mean-mug me, I couldn't bear to leave it on until Thursday.
