I knew you would clean it=) Sorry for not having time to do so.
Hard with a baby clinging to you like a monkey. Be sure to post sound clips -- or lack there of=) As the hope is to not have any sound...

Oh man, I see the rhino ramps. That means you really are doing a late night install. Hope your neighbors don't mind the air tools=)

Put her away in the garage away from this hurricane.
N air tools were used last night. All by hand. Took about an hour to take the Invidia out. Will be installing the KaKuMei prototype later this morning. Need to find a 3" gasket and couple more bolts. :smile (2):
Finish installing the Kakumei prototype exhaust. It's is about 50% less the sound of my Inividia. I do feel that it is more open better than the Invidia. I wanted silent with comprise performance. This work out prefect for me.
Looks good. Any sound clips?

Yes, the kids said dad, your car is quiet now. Is that what you did to it this morning.
Oh yeah, she said it much better.
I will try to get one tomorrow.Looks good. Any sound clips?
I like it. I meant to said NO compromise in performance in the previous post. I actually feel it much improved over the Invidia.

^all of that fancy boxing for ONE led per light?
Put on new hose on the oil catch, tightened up the bolts from the HFC install, put some RVT sealant on my y to mid gasket, raised up the coilovers a bit before the drive back to school, and cleaned the barrels of the wheels while they were off.
Looks like one of my lugs melted onto the stud and stripped it. It's the shiny silver part in the middleish thread.

Yeah, hopefully I can torque it back down just fine. The dealership touched them last, so that's probably why.
You can see how the threads are here, doesn't really pick up until that weird mark.
Hand tighten.......how difficult is that. Dealers, how many of them really care?
Going to replace the lug?
