***Sold***
Have two items for sale. Both are used, approximately for 9000 miles over the course of 2.5 years. In tandem this makes the car sound fantastic with incredible audio feedback when driving. Initial warm up can be pretty rude, but that calms down to a completely reasonable idle...
Tire shop fumbled mounting one of my wheels and I'm left with the scratch in the image. It's pretty long but just on the edge. Matte black stock wheels. They offered to "refinish" the wheel but I'm not sure what that means or their ability to color/finish match stock. They did say it'd look...
It's bad... At a normal following distance you will be able to tell a car is behind you, but you wont be able to tell what kind of car it is. The wing goes right across the front grill/lights. I worry about not being able to see a police car or something important behind, and end up using the...
I believe Evasive is the sole US distributor, so any order goes through them. Unless that system has changed. I ordered mine in August last year and it came last month, so a cool 14 month wait (originally estimated at ~10mo).
If aFe has a 400cpsi with their really narrow pipe that's likely a quiet one.
HJS makes a downpipe that uses their own cats (two of them, perhaps?) for the b58 which is also likely very quiet and clean emissions-wise. I believe fabspeed relabels it in the US, though you might have to look...
Drove it from NYC to LA.
I was impressed how well suited the car was to touring. It loves cruising down the highway at high speeds, and is stable/comfy at some autobahny levels. Looking fast was helpful too, since people see you come up in rear view and move over with time to spare (NM, TX...
There's a lot of discussion on that exhaust in here, kind of page 10+.

Personally I thought it was incredibly loud, more so than videos really communicate. It took a few days for me to acclimate and really enjoy it...
xpel on the nose, ceramic everywhere else. Rounds out the initial mods I planned prior to driving NY-->LA next week. I probably should have xpel'd the hood too, but the shop wanted $1800 for that section, just wasn't worth that much to me.
Where it stands...
- Boost Logic exhaust
- Akrapovic...
The super sports, and some other tires I guess, have a qr code on them that the car can read to know the specs of the tire automatically.

Not sure what the car does with that info, manual doesn't have much on it.
Just put the dws06 on my car, preparing for a cross-country trip which'll encounter some cold! No sidewall barcode, but otherwise so far so good.
The tire shop couldn't say enough good stuff about these, including that I probably wont even want to go back to the supersports in the summer. If...
The paint issue alone seems like one that may trigger lemon law, i.e. they'll try to fix it a few times and won't be successful. Decent chance you end up in a new ride.
For sure do what you think feels right, but I think you're closing in on a situation where the troubles you've had make you...
Yeah the radar cruise control is really nicely done, isn't it? It even does well in city stop & go5mph.
I had a hood latch problem too! Same one, left side, didn't latch once, so I had to try a second time. Swear I did it the recommended "drop from a foot up" way both times.
And yeah, seems...
I saw something about this, probably elsewhere on the forum, but maybe youtube.
You're supposed to use heat, like a hair dryer, to correct them.
Edit: Found the video, you have the same problem. He's on this forum, but I forget the user name, sorry!
Alright - last update in the boost logic blog for me.
City driving - my friends have convinced me it's not as bad as I feared. I think it's louder than it should be in 1-2k rev range, but they say it sounds great. A lot of that has to do with still being grumbly, not like a hopped up honda...
