Your small sample size of a community of affluent kids driving around in expensive vehicles their rich Daddy's bought them is not the norm in America. It may be true in your area, but 90% of American's are not driving Range Rovers and BMW's, and certainly not buying them for their kids.
I started with a Lund-tuned Stage II Procharger and stock everything else. Within 3 months I had burned up the stock cats and blew a ring. Now I have catless headers and forged pistons and haven't had an issue for at least 2 years.
Yea, shouldn't be that expensive unless they're supercharged and have additional suspension work and usually signature leather seats, at least that's what I remember them having for that price point.
Quiet Mode will still be quiet with an H-pipe. Just don't do what I did and get headers on top of it... Quiet Mode with headers and an H-pipe will be more like Normal Mode. :lipssealed:
My stock cats burned up within three months of installing my supercharger. I put on some aftermarket high flows w/headers and I've been running them for two years now without issue.
There are always going to be Negative Nancies and Debbie Downers, or whatever you want to call them. It's nice, positive news but leave it to the haters to rain on your parade. 🙄
Blown here. Pegged out the speedometer and still had gears to blow through. Kept it going until I ran out of road about 30 seconds later. No idea how fast I was actually going but was certainly more than the speedometer's 160+.
I agree with this. The Boss is a monster, a pure, raw, blissful muscle car. But the s550 is a sportscar, much more refined inside and out with better handling, nicer interior, more creature comforts, and faster performance. Its definitely an evolution over the old school, and you may like that...
Had similar issues with Lund. Spoke to me like I was an idiot or a child when I had concerns about some of the shift points and timing in the tune they sent me. After I blew my rings and had the engine rebuilt I had questions regarding said tune and they basically told me I must have done...
