Mishimoto skid plate installed and its the best mod you can do IMO right away! and also some radiator grille mesh for now until i come up with a better solution. the stradale designs one did not work out as i wanted to too. moves too much even with the grommets in place and it leaves about 2-3 inches of the top portion of the oilcooler still exposed... it seems more suited for the autos with the transmission cooler.

I know the Zunsport one is around but i hate how it covers up the 2 bars.

Man I was planning on the Stradale design for the exact reason. Don’t want to cover the bars. Any pics of the gap? I wonder if Stradale is aware ?

yea they know i posted on fb about it i do need to get him a picture of what i was talking about. I didnt take a pic because i did record it on my gimbal cam. ill strip through some footage tonight and get a small video posted asap. cleaning up my apartment for the new year..

I love this car soo much the manual is getting better and better and there were some weird smells the first day but that quickly has stopped and as im getting closer to 300 miles its getting smoother.,

with that said going into second still kinda sucks unless you go slow then its fine but im not going past 4k RPM but accidently did twice at 5k because my GF was talking, traffic and music was going... UGH but have not stalled it, had a close call though with stalling.

I CANT SAY IT ENOUGH THIS THING IS AMAZING


off to PPF on Thursday!

Oh man why would you not go over 4K? That’s not good for the engine… drive more normally and follow the manual on break-in
