Is this normal?

I've noticed a lot more black exhaust remnants on my bumper and on the trunk since installing my BR TBE and was just wondering if this is normal? I know that with the new exhaust being less restrictive that more crap will get through, but just wanted to make sure that everything is copasetic.

I've already had a tune by Al, smarta$$. You would have noticed that if you would have looked at my signature.

Does this also fall in line with a HFC?

I've actually been looking at getting one of these ever since I've noticed soot on my bumper when I was stock. I guess it is time to buy one especially since being modified now.

well even being tuned youll prob still have the soot but it should be a tiny bit less w/ the HFC...I know if I go longer then a week w/ out washing my car the bumper looks two toned...


a heat shield will def help though....I just ordered one from this thread https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=219090

great price too
