I get a lot of random blips too.........

Curious - if y'all got yours through an AD, how long did you wait ?

What muffler did you go with ?

Had her out last week and hit the limiter at the end of 2nd again. It was still very abrupt, but I guess knowing it was coming makes a lot of difference. Nothing like the rice rockets where the kids pin the bike in WOT in the parking lots to listen to it bounce off the limiter till they let...

Sorry to hear that. I can't recall any other similar complaints. What's it like in loudest mode ?

Now that's good advice :) Might be a while, but will do. I think the opportunities to redline much higher gears is pretty limited on public highways. I guess 3rd is OK at 120. Same Google search said 200+ in 5th/6th, but my math shows 5th won't go that high before redline, and the huge gap...

I don't know if it cuts fuel or spark or both, but i nearly hit my head on the steering wheel when it happened. Like i said, I thought I had hit it before in a much less violent way.

I hung onto 2nd gear a little too long recently, and was punished sharply for it. Obviously you're in a hurry if you're redlining the car, so it was a nasty surprise when it simply shut down in response to my late shift. It brought back memories of the bad ol' days in my E34 530i. That car...

Both cars look great !! That is pretty steep. Wish it were available when I had mine replaced after a hailstorm right after I got it. I'm surprised it only saves 2 pounds. But the flutter above 120 mph is what I'd want to fix. Have you tested that ? Surely the carbon is stiffer than the...

If anyone has ARH headers, would love the feedback. It was Kooks only for so long, but we finally have choices.

And when was the last time GMC offered a manual transmission ?!?!?!?

Most recent acquisition, and likely my last. I think its the perfect chronograph - Panerai 526 Regatta Flyback.

So who is attending US GP events ? I live in Austin and am eying Turn 12 - best seat in the house - $750/seat for 3 day pass. Anybody ?

It all depends on resale vs New $$$ for me at that point............:)

I have a thread here about my exhaust mods. I replaced factory mufflers with aftermarket pass-through mufflers. Re-used factory tips. Local shop custom made all the mods for under $750. It sounds much better, but still not enough for me. Its noticeably louder than stock with the flaps open. But...
