So, what's failing? What are you doing to prevent it?

Other things that are failing are CELs for catalytic response too slow, meaning that 02 are getting fucked from using too much 100oct?

Mine pops up every few months. What will I do to fix it? I will soon get race pipes to remove the cats ;D

If I have to replace the precat 02s I will as well…

Launching out of the box, the rear diff mount pulled out and caused the drive shaft to make contact with the floor. It started eating way until smoke filled the cabin and we were forced to retire the car. I’m not sure if it completely removed itself, because if it did, I would expect way more problems.

So the mount shifted allowing contact between the floor pan and driveshaft. Looks like we need that apikol mount.

i got my daily apikol mount in the mail, im just thinking i made the wrong choice and should have gone with the other density because racecar

Arin I want that exhaust

I imagine it is similiar to current offerings, no interior though makes it sound like that. It might be slightly different than what they sell of shelf in order to meet restrictions and what not.

You can tell a lot of sound is coming through body.

I think it’s a straight through exhaust:

test pipes as well, i think the first race car had them from O34

Resonators are failing :slight_smile:

jesus really? Or sarcastically?

most people don’t realize how obnoxious and annoying this engine sounds in person when it’s a straight through exhaust. I can’t even begin to imagine how much worse that is when you factor in a completely gutted interior

Off topic, but how bad was your fast intentions exhaust, rich?

Drone wise, I mean. I recall it sounding pretty awesome otherwise.

Usually you are wearing ear plugs and a helmet with fire cap, so straight thru is no problem in a race car.

Sarcastically

miserable, i could handle the loudness of the exhaust, and hell on the outside it sounded pretty decent but the drone was the worse noise ive ever experienced, straight up was close to the mythical brown note lol

Was it worse than my AWE with Testpipes? Lol

Just to add to this. I did my KwV3 install this past weekend and replaced the bushing on top of the spring. It’s part #16 on this diagram

But when I was throwing everything back together I noticed another rubber bushing that needed to be replaced, it goes on part # 13 on that diagram and isnt shown. My old springs had worn through it an my theory is that the spring would occassionally knock against that metal peice shown and cause an inconsistent knock. So I replaced both parts and so far have had no noise from the suspension. I’m at 66.5k miles, 40k or so on the old kw springs.

Has anyone gotten a creaking from their seat over bumps?

far worse

What mounts are out there at the moment besides from the rear dif mount?
