I have this on my '82 SC, it makes life easy, clean and has a sealed cap that eliminates concern about possible leaking. Very good design.

@desmotesta - take it to Mr. Muffler before you leave and have them do it while you’re gone. You can pick it up when you come back!

My T is coming up to 11K miles and 4 years in sept..

I have a list of possible mods to do next and would love any feedback.

I might do a track instruction day once or twice a year …. But since I do remote work, I mostly drive it just for fun on the public roads. Never fast, mostly just hard into corners. 😎

I want to hang on to it for the next 25 years, so wont ever tune it since I don’t want stress the engine.

so far got:
- new Tubi sport cats - sounds better; pulls undeniably a "little" bit better.

- rear pads and rotors had to be replaced.

- replaced pirellis with MPS4s - noticeably better handling.

NEXT STEPS:

- BMS Air filter and IPD plenum upgrade - hopefully more sound & a bit more noticeable power

- Upgrade of Rear Wheel Carrier Concentric Monoball Bushing Kit - crisper rear wheel steering turning?

- upgrade current sway bars to the Elephant racing Rear "GT3 SYTLE" adjustable sway bar.. - better handling in corners w/o having to go to stiff setting on shocks?

- upgrade to rennline semi-solid motor mounts - reduce power lost in acceleration due to twisting?

id appreciate any feedback if any of this is not going to do what I expect or not worth it AND if I should focus on one over the other?

Thanks in advance.

Finally got my pre-owned PSE installed. It was super easy with the rear bumper heat shield removed. Didn't have any seized bolts/nuts, vacuum line routing was a little tricky but accomplished. I also installed a new 3rd brake light harness in the spoiler to eliminate the fail code I get when the spoiler deploys at speed.

Now I need to get the button programmed. Anyone in SoCal have a PIWIS system I can use for 15 minutes? I pay in beer!



On a side note, do these filter look dirty enough to change? Probably less than 2k miles on them.

Hi Noah, I live in DTLA and have one of those Chinese PIWIS 2 you can borrow, I have yet to figure out to get into the coding sections. I have mostly used it for trouble codes and some calibrations stuff. I know you have to put it into engineering mode and do things like that, but have yet to experiment. But you are more than welcome to borrow it and experiment on your own car.

I would do the filter since you are doing the 4 year service. The others I would pass on. If you are not interested in a tune (many that are moderate and add decent power) then focus on air inlets. The plenum may give 5-10 up but no likely without a tune.
