Impressions.....start up reveals a turbo that spools up faster, and the exhaust just got a note deeper. The Akra exhaust is not a loud exhaust, it does have a very "tuned" quality to it, and the DP makes it sound even better. Getting the Roadster down off the lift and out on the street reveals more torque down low, a crisper throttle response and a more pronounced Pop/Burble. The freer flowing exhaust had really subdued the Pop/Burble I had with the JCW exhaust, and hearing it come back a little more pronounced sounds good. Next up, running Stage 2 on my AP
Steven,
Have you had any error cels once you got it up and started with the new DP?
Sounding more and more like I'm going to have to bite the bullet and save a little more for the right exhaust system. Damn I had $2500 on exhaust. But, it sounds and looks like the right setup.

No CELs, as I'm running the Alta AP, which tunes them out. In your case, maybe an Evolve tune should be considered. Knowing your attention to detail on mechanical things...this is right up your alley But you're right, it's damn pricey.

Steven ,
Believe it or not, but they are ahead of ASKMINI. I just talked with a representative and she still says in the Paint Shop, and due to end on March 4th . I asked her what day it is today. Guess I asked too detailed of question. All of a sudden the computers were down. Oh well, it's train time.

ASKMINI finally caught up with Owners Lounge. Talked with a real person and he got me more information. Maybe their computer was down. Anyway, he says that it's on its way to Port/Dock in Southampton and should be loading on a ship within three days. Where he got that informatin I'd like to know, but anyway, it should be just frustrating from now on not knowing where he is. I hope that they don't get all mixed up and try to go thru the Panama Canal, we need Baltimore, not the West Coast. If it goes as it did last time, it should be nine days, or less, to Baltimore POA. Anyway, I'm getting just a little pumped. Good thing Olga is going to visit her sister in Moscow, so she doesn't have to listen to me say, "Where in the heck is that ship." "Did it get lost?" She already thinks I've gone overboard on this, mentally. She might be right.
