Finally pulled the cover off and pushed the fun button for the first time in over 5 months. Took it for an hour drive, just doesn’t get old.

Let me know how you like these. Im looking to do something too. Doing the braided lines now. But will need new brakes this season probs prior to track and thingsChanged out the final tpms sensor in my right front tire and started installing my powerstop brake kit.

Stainless Works CBE with H pipe. Sounds so good. No drone. Lil quieter in lower RPMs than the OEM active exhaust with steeda H pipe. Once you get on it then you will know it is not an oem setup. Gives the car a lil chop sound at idle. Not raspy. Very well made. The downshifts are GD music. Is best thing Ive heard on S550. Seems everyone has Corsa or the like with X pipe and always sound raspy and tinny. Im also running an ESS setup. Have SW headers with high flow cats going on in few weeks. Hoping to keep it decent sound wise. And need Cats for the communist Massachusetts. Went Gesi 450. Supposed to handle 850hp per. So we will see. Get car out tomorrow. Can get video of it if you want.I ended up putting the stock CBE back on after the LTH made the Thermal R&D setup ungodly loud.
Now I’m back to the drawing board trying to find a new CBE that won’t be obnoxious.
Those seats look really good.Installed the Schroth quick fit pro harness with RTR glam

3 weeks ago, I added the SW LTH, Gesi Hi Flows with the SW H pipe back to my stock active exhaust. Then got the car dyno tuned and it runs great. Not offensive in Quiet mode. When you open it up it roars. No tinny sound and no droning but it gets spicy in Normal/Sport modes.Have SW headers with high flow cats going on in few weeks. Hoping to keep it decent sound wise.

Get you a set of "defoulers" and be done with it.I added a set of the bolt on SVE jack pads. Used new OEM TtY bolts for the K member. Easy install.

One thing I did have to deal with though, even with the GESI's (EPA approved ones), if I got on it more than ~4K rpms it would pop the CEL w/P0420/0430 codes. Tuner sent me a slightly revised tune but it still happened, so be prepared for that. I'll PM you some info.
