exhaust
This may be in the wrong spot so I apologize up front...but I am putting my car back together stock....it was gutted for a little autocross fun,the only thing left is to finish installing the rest of the interior and put a QUIETER exhaust on(I have a custom made straight exhaust)(it looks factory from the back) I will be willing to trade someone or sell mine for $100 or $150 with the tips,which look like rotary symbols !! for more info text me 504-292-0808 Name is Paul,thanks!!

Damn...I haven't checked here in a while. So any more solid plans on a meet?
If you see a 2011 (I dunno the code...SBM?) Sparkling Black Mica GT with zoom-zoom stickers on front and rear windows, that's me. Yeah...got those stickers when we went to MotoGP at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year.
I still haven't done anything to the car except to put the radiator and oil cooler screens on. I really need to get the puddle lights installed.
SYKOTIKKUSTOMS, did you dyno the car with the straight exhaust? If so, what was the power increase? How does it sound? How loud is it?

My car has so many chips on the front nose that I decided to stop waxing it and just save up for a paint job... That is after I stop being lazy and order my swaybar endlinks... Which I have had the money for 2 months now... New coolant bottle comes in today, wonder how long it will take me to install that lol.
DSC and TCS still do not work. (hoping it's just alignment issues, waiting to put endlinks on to do that.)
Have been powersteering trouble free since changing the plugs, very happy with that.
MPG continue to decline as I drive with the a/c on now and more aggressive with the new exhaust and suspension.
I also think I developed an oil leak, but I'm not sure. I cleaned the engine bay out to help locate it, if there is one, but never got back under the car to see if the oil came back, never leaves a spot on the ground so I'm not very concerned about it.
100% fell in love with the GOODbox, now I can satisfy my obsession with staring at the coolant temp lol.
Anyone still wanting to do a meet? I should be more available after Easter weekend.

Sorry, man the next day at work all kinds of drama went down and I had to fire my entire crew over the course of the month, except for one. I have had 3 days off since then, sorry. I will make the thread soon. I only need to replace one last person and I can go back to a more steady schedule. Until then, I really do not know what day I will actually be off.

There are more than a few in my area. No random meeting though. I been bugging Hesselrode ( 
) for a "Rx8club" sticker to try to get them on here, but he has been busy with his sound system and front bumper. And I actually do not think I have seen him since all this crap at work went down. If you ever plan on crossing the pond and visit the NOLA area maybe we can meet up.
