Thanks, Chris! My current exhaust is the B+B Triflo with the 3 1/2" tips that look badass. Aesthetically they are awesome but just lack the explosive sound that a supercharged car should have. Nice and rumbly at idle and around town but they get pretty quiet when I want them not to be....like at 7000 rpms on full boost!

The Dinan cans that I'm getting for a very generous price are in need of some love. The cans and tips have a decent layer of rust and that won't fly. I'm thinking of painting the cans matte black and having Tim fashion some replacement tips to dress things up a bit.

BTW, how do you like your Dinan cans? And what's this about new shoes??
 
Opportunity!!!!
I think the new family addition of an alien that happens to share 1/2 of my DNA tells the story......

Polish and elbow grease could sort those out! Labour of love!
 
he's really good....i'll see if i can find his number somewhere around here.
 
Yes new shoes. Will post pix once I get the car back... hopefully TODAY ugh, driving me crazy.

Oh and I EFFING LOVE my Dinan cans. Aside from straight pipes, these sound amazing.

Due to the new shoes and rubber going on I went out the other night with the explicit purpose of doing burnouts on my threadbare tires. I thought I would give them a good send off.

Ill post videos of that too once my buddy finishes editing them. That way you can hear them from start up to full out launch. (yes I dumped the clutch)
 
Thanks for sharing! Glad that Brecus clutch is working out great! I'm thinking about going with that setup as well. I can't remember if you said the brecus was paired with the a new stock flywheel or a lightened one...
 
I heard this car-and-driver combo may have some interesting news......

FI E39 M5 1/4 Mile Record

Fortunately and also unfortunately, yes.
<sigh> It's been 3 1/2 years since Thrilos5, driving my car, set the current S3 1/4 mile record at Atco. I'm still waiting... :biggrinbounce:
</sigh>
