Guys, to be clear - FORScan disables both the ANC and the fake sound symposer. I've tried it with the COBB Accessport, where previously when I changed Map slots (between 1 to 5) it used to make the fake noise, and now it doesn't.
An additional solution that incidentally solved my squeeling problem, was taking the car to the track for an hour! A few hard pushes of the brakes seem to have sorted it out.
Geia sou file Maki!
Welcome to the club of MBRP Race owners - you have made a great choice for your car, it's one of the best exhausts for the Ecoboost. You're probably the only person in Athens to have this car with this exhaust, and similarly I'm the only one in London ;)
Thanks for the results! Funny enough, I also downloaded the decibel app but hadn't gotten the chance to try it. From your test results, sounds like you get around 12-13 decibel less noise inside the cabin with the mic disconnected (which in my opinion is great).
Brother the video is great, and your car looks amazing. I'm not a fan of paint jobs generally, but yours is the only one that made me think yeahhhhhhhh....
When it comes to exhaust, it's personal preference as some people like raspy sound and others (like me) prefer deep bassy sounds like MBRP...
Thanks so much for the info guys. I tried disconnecting the mic a while back but didn't notice much difference so plugged it back in. Reading all these posts though makes me want to disconnect it again.
I hope I can notice the difference now :)
Would have definitely bought from you but I'm in the UK, so the plugs would take ages to arrive and I would end up paying twice as much because of the tax/duty :(
Thanks for all the help guys, much appreciated. I just ordered a batch of 6 Denso plugs (2 extra in case I mess up the gapping to 0.28!).
Will let you know results/feedback once installed.
(Apologies if this seems like a stupid question!)
Regarding Adam's recommendation on Denso spark plugs:
Bearing in mind that the only mods I've got are a Catback Exhaust and a Cobb OTS Stage 1 tune, is it worth it buying the Denso plugs? I'm not sure if I'll notice any difference, or if it's...
I've written this in another post a couple of weeks back, so I'll summarize for brevity.
The latest version of the Cobb Stage 1 OTS Map (v.202) for AT transmission has an high shifting point between 1st and 2nd gear - as you pointed out after 2500rpm. I have personally called up customer...
Awesome, thanks for the pics!
I've actually found out that there's Mishimoto UK, and I'll be able to source the intercooler locally without spending 30% more on shipping and tax/duties :)
Hi All,
I'm seriously considering going for a Mishimoto intercooler for my EBM, but haven't yet decided on the colour options (Silver or Black). I have no idea how these would look once installed - does anyone have any pics from the front of their EBM with either a silver or black intercooler...
I'm very surprised about the issues you've raised. I've had zero issues put the exhaust in, and none of the folks I spoke to about MBRP Race have had such issues. Might be worth it doing install at a good garage to get the fitting right.
I've extremely happy with the MBRP Race, and I've also...
