Building new exhaust, got some luck!

and the luck just keeps on comming...

Just found this on ebay, and guy is selling it to me for $145, brand new, never been used.

Well, ebay guy turned out to be a douche, so I didn't get the slip on. Well, I bought the carbon GYTR.

Still waiting on it to be delivered. But I got the headers welded to the midpipe. Slapped the akrapovic megaphone slip on, on to it... HOLY HELL IS IT LOUD... I really hope that the new GYTR will quiet it down a bit. The only new thing is that my engine now runs about 10 - 15 degrees warmer than before...

Think I am going to run the GYTR slip on and see how loud/hot it gets. And if it is too much, I may just go back to OEM with GYTR.

You can always run engine ice to lower the engine temp back down.

I am already running water wetter, and it is not even dead of summer yet. Water wetter (with oem exhaust set up) dropped the temp about 5 degrees.

you can add water wetter to engine ice for extra cooling if needed and you don't have to change it for some tracks if you go to a trackday.
