Tess and Jaye are fine and would send their regards if they read MX5 Car Talk. Jaye still has a photo of you from the last open day.

Hopefully we will attend a Sat coffee session again soon!

So whats the difference between yours and a straight pipe? Sorry my Wikipedia skills arent up to your par, im just a dumb Aircraft Engineer


Coming along nicely, the plans. My cat back is a straight through pipe and need the hotdog so we won't lose any torque.

Any punters on here?

That's not how resonators work... They are for reducing exhast rasp and smoothing out drone noises.

Na6 ecu's are not capable of learning or frankly much at all. This is all in your head. You could mske one of these ecu's for $50 at Jaycar.

I swear to god you are 9 years old, have some kind of severe learning disability, or are the most arrogant person in the world.
