Trust .... So important!

Braap braap braap braap!

It booms louder and looms closer than you think. It is there to haunt, it is there to torture, and there to pilage whatever sense of skill you felt you might have had. It stalks loudly to let you know that it is coming for you. It ignores all formal laws and defies the gods of acoustics. It is .... My new exhaust made by Trust 2.5 inch diameter accompanied by 2.2 inch piping with 2 inch bends! >:D

Back to real life for a moment. This weekends crowning moment was the installation of hell's very own exhaust. Despite the risk of countless and pointless money being spent on tickets i believe that i made a sound purchase (Get it?). Rest assured for those who have already witnessed its monstrous sound, i will be tuning it down more with another mid pipe silencer, for the sake of my own sanity, hehe. I must admit, nailing the throttle never sounded so rich before, the results were clearly evident, acceleration was much better. FYI: Previously i was using a 1.8 inch pipe and a 2 inch exhaust.

Sadly i didn't get a chance to really lay it out against anyone yet so, i guess the stories are currently on hiatus. Gas price hike doesn't promote driving fast!

Not sure what else to write about, other than the fact my gasket didn't get installed yet. Planning for a port and polish job and getting it put in at the same time hehe.

Au bientot (Minus the accents)!

I have it but haven't put it in. As far as i know, it increases compression giving me an optimistic 4 hp or a minium or 2 hp. Doesn't sound like much but heck, i'll take it :P

The port and polish will apparently take 2 to 3 days, not sure i can part with my car for so long. No spare car :P. As for where not too sure have yet to contact the fella for the shop address. RM350 for the port and polish, apparently.
