hi Guys
after picking my car up on the 3rd march and have accumalated just over 1000 miles.
i decided to start making some modifications firstly.
1.) replaced stock exhaust with a cat-back MBRP Stainless Steel 4inch tips which fit perfectly ordered from american muscle, must say good choice nice deep tone and not to loud in the cabin.
2.)removed stock air-filter cold intake and replaced with Roush Cold-air-intake system, best purchase so far you notice better response on throttle and i am sure a few extra horses on the wheel, i will need to get a dyno report for confirmation.
3)decided to have my roof wrapped with 3M gloss black for £100.00quid locally great job and finishes it off beautifully.

Nice, get a Roush stage 2 remap for it, should unleash a good 50BHP and 50 torques. :)

Interesting on the MBRP choice, is it the Street or Race? I know the Race has 3" pipes and some say that causes drone in the cabin.
When i get my car back from its latest incursion i was considering the MBRP Race, Magnaflow Competition or local Exhaust place who custom builds system for American cars.
Magnaflow is almost double the price of the MBRP, but i've read a few stories now about the drone & the build quality not quite being there. Custom built exhaust is going to be £600, i have no way of knowing what its going to sound like because they custom build their mufflers. They do have a sterling reputation up here though & did say if i didn't like the sound they can make some modifications to change it.

Nice work...thanks for the post. I hope to see you at one of the meets soon! Would love to experience the exhaust note in person!

And yes, the black & yellow combo looks sweet!

Americanmuscles website says Tune required for the Roush
Aren't remaps and tunes pretty much the same thing :bolt:?

Yes they are, i was pointing out that Gibbo says get it remapped/tuned, but Roush say a remap/tune is "required" for that CAI anyway...
Ah I'm following now!
