Lots of updates!
Finally put the LEDs in my left tweeter
Finally installed EBC Red performance break pads
Finished making the LED Fogs
Replaced one of my LED fog strip because 3 leds burned out or something else happened
Tooks pics on how to install LED fogs
Cleaned my red calipers with wet paper towels to make em shiny!
Washed the car!
Put some tire shine on!
Still impressed how after 6 months the plasti dip holds up!

Haha i have grown used to it. It has definitely crossed my mind to put the stock exhaust back on though. It surprises me that the Descendant exhaust gave you the same problem though. I always thought it was milder. At one time I had a plan to swap for the descendant. Not anymore

yeah now that i am more aware of the sound and the sound level, i can def hear the drone with stock exhaust but it is much QUIETER! Whenever I hear the droning im thinkin to myself what a good idea it was to put the stock exhaust back or else IT WOULD BE SUPER LOUD!
some of my friends even ask me sometimes if its still loud/boomy in my car b4 they get into it to go somewhere

Just take off the snorkel from the stock air box.
Results: Better sound and More HP/TQ
Stock snorkel has a very narrow end
I was just driving and could not figure out why my car sounded different and felt a lot more torque'ier and responsive. Half an hour into the drive I remembered that I took off the snorkel a couple days ago

I'd be interested to see a before and after dyno on that.
