Lol, I just came in from the garage...the snows are back on. My area may see substantial freezing rain tomorrow into Friday and I didn't want to roll the dice. The OE Michelins are greasy enough on cold pavement, let alone snow/ice/etc.

Finally put on my High flow Cats today, and definetly feel a huge differency. The revs climb so much faster. Just cant imagine what a tune would do. ECUTEK tune next on my list.

Motiv High FLow Cat.



The welds on this exhaust are just beautiful.

I keep seeing a blue twin at Carleton U - always too far away to tell if it's a BRZ or FR-S. Someone from this forum I wonder?
Then last night driving home another (or same) blue twin flashed their lights at me on bank street. I was too slow to respond - didn't mean to be unfriendly. I was thinking this person was warning us of a speed trap or something, before I realized it was a fellow ft86 saying hi.

Thanks Andre, but you have been deceived by the shadows of darkness lol. That's why I chose a night shot to disguise the filth!

That would be me in the same WRB brz that you keep seeing in Carleton U and the time you saw me on bank. I saw a fr-s coming towards me on bank, so i flashed my light to say hi. Is your car the one that's parked next to the otrain parking lot at Carleton U, I think its asphalt fr-s.

It's all Paul's fault, he jinxed us a few weeks back....

I didn't drive today, came to work with the wifey in her car.


Good news is that this bodes well for the end of April meet if all the shitty weather is happening now.
