Thanks!!! The photography is amazing too.

If anyone is on the east coast, look up Matt Reiser at Fastlane Photography. He may be young, but definitely has an inherent talent.

I just finished installing my new (to me) Sharkwerks center muffler bypass. Thanks mdrums. It was actually a pretty easy job. I did it without lifting the car nor removing the bumper. Took about an hour including putting my tools away. The key was I purchased the Craftsman 7 pc. Metric Elbow Ratcheting Wrench Set suggested by someone. Really made it easy getting the top nuts off. Haven't had a chance to take a drive yet but noticed a big difference when I started it and rev'ed a bit. Not really louder but a much better tone. Deeper sounding and a more sports car sound. Can't wait to take a drive.

Good work doing it yourself. I am very happy with my Shark Werks - improves the sound both on and off-throttle. Enjoy!

Drove it to the cottage. A 3-hour drive on 2-lane secondary highway for most of the trip. Significantly exceeded the speed limit whenever possible, passing minivans at great speed while emitting a ferocious noise.

The car is magic. Took this picture on arrival.

Woke up early. Streamed cockpit feed from #19 919 on my iPhone at full volume, and then took a drive while enjoying last hour of Le Mans. Tried Sport Plus for first time. Yikes! That was fun. Then brought my unicorn home for a bath, spray detail, Macguiars leather wipes, Griots rubber/vinyl treatment. Then put her to bed, so she'll look good for PCA social this Thursday...T
