Thanks Chad. It's a mixed blessing having family all over the place. Sure you get to see some beautiful places, but it sucks not having your close relatives with you. We never get a chance to celebrate holidays or birthdays together.

HKS Hi Power. The tip was a nice ricer blue for the first few weeks. The first track day I took it to it got so hot that most of it faded, so now it looks like crap haha. I'll try to either polish it back up or just coat it black.

Weird, mine never faded.

I bought it used and this pic was taken after I had had it a few months and done a few events. Maybe you should call HKS, they might throw one your way. I thought maybe you had the RR knock off.

I may. I don't really care enough about the way it looks I guess. I noticed it getting lighter after a couple of sessions, and then kept an eye on it the rest of the weekend, and it just got worse and worse. I still have the factory cat, which I suspect is letting the exhaust get a lot hotter than it probably wants to be. Definitely on my to-do list of changes before my next track weekend.

Ah, yeah the factory cat may be the culprit then, I have not had a cat for years.

I didn't find anything from the rear and above but I found some pictures that give a good idea of how it fits on the car.
