It's been a few months and I miss the sound of mine already. It is perfectly civilized with the seats up, with just the right amount of volume and some occasional burbles with the seats down.

Seats down an uncatted header is a bit brutal.

When I go for a spirited drive, the burbles are pretty much constant, especially off throttle and down shifting. I think it's got to do with the temperature of headers and how violently the unburnt fuel is exploding. Just my guess

I was looking for a valved exhaust, but folding the backseat up and down might just be the poor man's active exhaust system . Take that, Porsche.

Wouldn't be surprised, the stock tune runs quite rich. I actually have less soot on my tailpipes since getting tuned.

Then a friend offered me his barely used gruppe-s for a few hundred bucks. Took a hit to sound quality with the stock catback but the powerband with a dialed tune is great. |

Just got my revised tune back from Delicious (A and B logs). The car is so fkn smooth now.
Anyone notice their aftermarket exhaust is slightly quieter after a tune? I’m not complaining, it’s perfect.

Which spoiler is that? Did you have it sprayed or order it in the colour match.

It's a TRD style/replica. Unsure of company, as I had purchased it form a fellow in Atlanta last year and didn't ask. He wanted to wrap it, but was having trouble getting the wrap to stay on unpainted plastic. I got a local shop to spray it DAR/Neptune a couple weeks ago. When I dropped the spoiler off, they came out with some sort of fancy paint-reading gun to make sure the color they mixed would be exact, and boy did they ever deliver a great result!

Well now, since my not too often driven 2013 FR-S seems to have a weak battery I decided to give it zap with the charger. Now, I did this about a month ago and it seemed to help. At that time I checked the level of electrolyte in the cells and it appeared that the cells "were covered" with fluid. I thought that was OK.
So, this time, when checking the cells, even though the tops of the cells were covered, I decided to add a bit of distilled water. DANG! Each cell took about a half a cup of water! Comments? |
