I added the resinator. The MKI SPM kit didnt come with a resi, since adding the resi it changed the exhaust note.

Yup, trying to make this thread easy for newer users to use.

I'll probably delete superfluous comments etc. once they've sat here for a few weeks.
If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

I've wanted the SMB extended secondarys and would have bough some off this forum if I didn't have to put all my cashola aside for Natmeet.

I can't wait to hear Kenny's car.
