As the title says I got the Exhaust and Downpipe installed over the weekend and I have to say I am really impressed with the performance and sound. I haven't gotten the car tuned yet but I feel that at the top end the car pulls alot more and there is less back pressure built up. I don't know if its the downpipe but I can hear a nice little spool flowing through the exhaust system now. Here are some pictures after everything is installed and I'm going to get some sound and video clips tonight once the roads are clear and not many caps are around LOL.

Installed the gauges in a visible area but also very discreet. I purchased the Carbon Fiber gauge pod from Agency Power and got the Gauges from AEM direct. 2 things you have to know if you purchase the gauges I purchased are, Make sure you know a welder if you are going to get the A/F gauge because there is a 02 sensor that has to be attached to the Downpipe. Secondly, you better know how to use the Tru boost because its not only a boost gauge but its a manual boost controller that has alot of functionality. I would highly recommend going to the Aempower.com forums and see how to use the Tru Boost before fiddling around with it.

 

Sick exhaust man, I just don't like the holes that are left behind after the silencers are taken out. I'm still considering this exhaust though, I wanna hear the sound clips... make sure you do a sick fly by.

Nice blog by the way, That obama pic with the sleeping dude behind him is SICK! Would you mind throwing me in your blog roll and I'll do the same for you on my blog?

 

Yeah I hate that the silencer leaves behind holes also but what can you do yah know. The exhaust sounds alot better in the car especially because it has a very deep sound to it instead of a high pitch. I will put that video together and post it up for sure on here.

As far as my blog I actually have a different blog I will add you on its www.nickelsevo.blogspot.com I need to put that 1 in my signature also. That Obama picture is classic if you look around a lot I mean a lot of people are sleeping. I spotted alot of celebs like Diddy sitting not too far from the podium.

 

That's so funny, It's like a where's waldo book. I put your car blog in my roll and signed on as a follower. Let me know when that sound clip is up,

 

most useless gauge closest to the driver.....most useful gauge furthest away..... hmmmm.......

how visible are then when driving?

 

I think it would match the stock trim more if you used the Silver bezel for the AEM gauges.

BTW, the volt gauge is useless. Other nice setup!

 

I'm either getting cf trim or going to paint it black so silver wouldn't match much. Voltage is useless to some but not in my case.
Yeah that was my buddies mistake but they are very visible for driving you don't stare at them while driving just take a quick glance.

 

looks great how hard was is to wire all of the gagues.

 

My friend did all of the wiring and he does it on a regular basis so it was simple for him.

 

that is one bad *** exhaust from AP

 

Does your car have the a/v jacks in the console? I could not tell from the photos. I like the guage mount, but am currios if you could get under them/it to plug into the a/v jacks. I have my afr guage mounted in the console there, but it is off to the side and doesn't block the jacks.

Nice color by the way. Matches mine perfectly. I wasn't so hot on the rally red when I bought it, but it has grown on me.

 

No, my AV jacks are located behind the headunit because I have an aftermarket unit. I have my ipod cable running into the center console.

 

Is that pillar for sale yet? I haven't seen it anywhere, do they make a 1 and 2 gauge version?

 

If you go to vividracing.com you will find it on the site for some reason Agency Power doesn't have it on the site. There is a 2 gauge and a 3 gauge.

 

any more pics of the gauge pod
