Went to see Sam and Craig at world Motorsports in Torrance. They switched out my almost new titanium IPE exhaust for their Kline inconel headers, 4 tip exhaust and 100 cell cats. They also installed a carbon moshammer diffuser.
I highly recommend this shop if you are anywhere close to Los Angeles.

Hey buddy, it was a real pleasure meeting you. Sorry I had to rush in and out but at least I got to meet you and our buddy from Brazil who visited as well. Enjoy it! And thank you.

Installed the JQwerks/MadTrace paddles - pretty easy to do and I gotta say these things are amazing. Very clicky and tactile with a ton of adjustability. I'd say it definitely makes the drive more engaging when in manual mode, as much as a PDK can do that. Here's a short video showing how they feel/sound. Not sure how to embed it into the post...


I ordered the Weissach style paddles with the kit as well. Not sure whether I'll swap out to them or not. Kind of liking the CF. Also included was a pair of shorter CF paddles. Pics of both:






Went for a drive... stopped at the gas station for a fill-up and a quick pic.




Lastly, reached out to Sam the man the a few days ago to inquire about Kline exhaust... and maybe a tune.. Now we're doing intercoolers and inlets too. So doing a bit more than I intended... I said I wasn't even gonna mod this car but I don't know how to leave things alone. I'm sure many of you can relate. It'll be well worth it I'm sure. Can't wait to dig into it once everything gets here. Oh, I also ordered a set of QuickJacks. I've had my eye on them for a while and decided to take advantage of the holiday deal they had going on since I could use them for this coming project. Seeing BigSwole's posts about them influenced the decision a bit too all in all, loving this car more every chance I get to drive it and super excited for what's to come.
Cheers

lol. Sorry.


This set must have been re-powder coated or something. The coating was all inside the hub area and all around the lug bolt hole on the hub side. It took me forever to get that stuff ground down. Barely got them on and almost didn't get them back off it was still so tight around the hub.

Put my spacers on the other day and STILL had to pick that stuff out of some of the lug bolt holes.

Did they come directly off your car or what. If so, the fitment with all that coating was very different than for my car. Strange.
