30M auto enthusiast as well, have a few gems like ae86 and a 350z if you want to hang out dm

I have ~73k CP on 1.4k GS. I didn't follow any guide. I just did all sealed dungeons, did many sealed dungeons in rift, all side quests, some pets, farmed skill points and daevanion points. Use abyss points for stigma shard

I didn't expect templar and cleric to be rare since the poll showed them very high

I think I know why this car is suspiciously liked, it's because it looks like an alfa romeo

I did and are much much cheaper, come in reasonable time and bigger selection

Same with uprev, you buy a license to flash an ecu instead, and they give you a base map to go off. Might not have as much features as a haltech, but I'm just saying is not necessary on a car with a couple of boltons. It's not a built engine from the ground

I did my study before doing it. Got a couple of courses, one specifically for Uprev, lurked around the forums to see best defaults so that I don't reinvent the wheel. Tuning a car on oem ecu with a couple of boltons shouldn't be that hard. Tuning a fully built engine on a standalone with no point of reference sounds a lot harder

It's my first time tuning my own car, I don't think it's a rocket science. For the time being k just fixed the maf scaling because AFR was way off because of headers and bigger throttle body. I wanted to do ignition timing but I didn't have the arc simplified timing feature showing up anywhere within the software so I left it at that. I assume it has to do with my ECU not supporting these features but I don't know

We have a long history of bootlicking

HKS calls them silencers.

It's not that deep bro, it's a very quiet setup, only makes sound in high rpm. This is free-revving.

And there's absolutely no drone inside the cabin, no matter the rpm. I guess HKS SSM produces this high pitch sound you can hear on other videos on YT the same

I'll post some DJI shoots driving around. It's really quiet until you get high up on the RPM

This is literally the most muffled setup you can get from OTS parts

Catback has 4 mufflers, extra muffler on the y pipe, and cats. Width is only 2.5" I think this video doesn't do it justice because it's actually very civil and good sounding.

Ssm doesn't come with a y pipe so I guess it's y-pipe back

Fixed, supposed to be y pipe

I've been hearing a lot of people praising BC recently. I bought a set for one of my cars once but sold it shortly after so I don't have enough data, but they were cheap and felt quality.

I was thinking of buying these as they are cheaper than art pipes and I saw a sound comparison these were deeper but went with hfc instead

I guess Dyno would be the only answer. Maybe ignition timing is significantly different between the cams

Powder coating is a really good option. I think more resilient than traditional paint.

Since you had a different set of cams before, is it possible you had adjustable cam gears that were adjusted for the older cams and not the new ones?

Silly question, but why coat and not just wrap?

I know that, I saw the comments on the similar CNC innovations. That's also part of the reason I never bothered actually installing. But I'd like to try for "science". If the drawbacks are not massive might keep because it makes the engine bay look good
