I will buy a used one when I see one for sale. Will do until I am closer to warranty expiration and I tune the thing. I know its not undetectable if they go looking to deny coverage if something comes up, but nevertheless.

This airbox is spoofing the ECU. The ECU doesn't know that its producing more torque. The torque is calculated based on the inputs and when the inputs are spoofed, the ECU still thinks its produces its preset max. If it was to know the real numbers, it would dial down the boost/timing to limit...

Modern engines control torque output to predetermined maximum values. Changing these maximum values requires modifying calibration. So installing parts without modifying calibration only increases potential (if even that) of the car to make more power/torque, but not actually do so.

I am assuming that is on an unlocked ecu and on the same aftermarket calibration? A stock calibration car can't make any more power with aftermarket parts.

Ok. I stand corrected.

Why? They are not claiming any power increase. There isn't any from a catback exhaust. Its just a sound clip under load. Good clip, AWE. Thank you for that.

It was a pain in the ass. Rotate the mirror to the side and it will make enough room to stick your fingers in.

All my "key fob left in the car" notifications are turned off and the damn thing still honks half the time I get out of the car with the fob in my pocket and at times even when I am in the car hitting the start button. Driving me fn insane. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I've never heard of such issue in my years with this platform.

Just polution and wasted gasoline.

A Buyer pays a 5% fee on BAT

What's the point? More dust going into the engine without any meaningful benefit.

I went through the same exercise on my ATS-V. When it was time to install the downpipes I bought a while back, I reluctantly went to snoop around. After spending half an hour trying and failing to figure out how to disconnect and pull out the O2 connectors, I thought it was not a project I cared...

No it doesn't impact catalytic converters. It had its own nuances in high concentrations, but a gallon or two will have no ill effects.

1. A catback exhaust is only for making more noise. It doesn't have any measurable improvement on torque output. Catted/cattless downpipes have nominal impact on torque output, unless you modifying heavily. With a JB4, I would consider them of no meaningful benefit. Certainly not worth the pain...

Patrick Cadillac in Schaumburg blew me off twice. Motorwerks in Barrington confirmed the issue and replaced the assembly.

Not normal. I don't know if you are aware, but there is a long standing issues with shifter assembly and shifter linkage bushing rounding out very quickly going back to 2016 on the ATS-V. From what I understand, they haven't changed anything on the assembly and the issue still exists on the 4BW...

I swapped everything but the front seats and the armrest lid (still looking for that one) from upgraded black to scg. Its a night and day difference. I thought I would be OK with black but couldn't stand it knowing that there is scg.

I had them on a car in the past. Compared to MPS, they suck. They are ok if you are looking to save money and don't particularly care to have the best. Or even fourth best, honestly.

The lf4 engine generally sounds like shit. You don't want to run it completely unmuffled. From your description, I dont think you are going to be happy with the catless AWE either. I wouldn't be. This engine can only give you so much volume before it starts sounding like a piece of briken...
