Already planning my winter exhaust set up and im actually kinda excited for the project. No clue why since it will reduce performance. Looking at muffler options I came across some super turbo round case options that may work wonderfully in the tunnel of the car. The plan is a stock or even quieter than stock 2 or 2.25" system. I think there is something wrong with me..

On a side note, if I can get it quiet enough before the turn for the axle I can make Eric a happy little boy with a side exit for winter.

DUAL SIDE EXIT WOO.

I'm so pumped.

 

[mitdr774]

The trick will be muffler packaging. Im not running three pipes over that axle.

 

[Eric Smit]

you could make it work. your exhaust is hopelessly complicated already. haha.

 

[mitdr774]

Todays fun.

 

[Eric Smit]

looks like fun.

 

[mitdr774]

It was. Only murdered one cone. It was not salvageable by the time I took it around 3/4 of the course.

 

[Eric Smit]

hahahaha. you murderer.

Hit a record short trip MPG last night. Yeah yeah, short trip number are biased, but it was the distance I had to work with.

I used 1.058 gallons for a 63.2 mile trip from Allendale to Big Rapids MI. 90% highway, 60MPH cruise. No AC, 66*F ambient temp.

DIC showed 41.5 mpg, UG showed 43.3 mpg. Calculated? 59.73 mpg

Even if you assume a 1/10 gal pump inaccuracy, still 54.57 mpg. First time I've ever seen the DIC be too low.

 

[Eric Smit]

nice!

First time I've ever seen the DIC be too low.

"Do yo DIC hang lo', do it wobble to the flo'?"

My tire pressure light came on this morning.
All tires @ 32 PSI.

Last time I checked them was last fall.


45K on my air filter too.

Yes, I've been slacking. I'm a slacker Mcfly.

 

[ahtoxa]

Jeez. I'm at 41k and at least I changed my filter around 35k.

I need an oil change.

 

[ChrisJ]

Jeez. I'm at 41k and at least I changed my filter around 35k.

I need an oil change.

Jeeez.
At least I changed my oil yesterday.

 

[mitdr774]

I should probably change mine before the weekend. I need to eliminate as many excuses as I can before running against James. I will have a co driver this time and I fully expect to loose to my own car.

 

[Eric Smit]

you're so mysterious with this co driver. hahaha.

 

[mitdr774]

Its a long time friend of mine that is a far better driver than I am. He has not autocrossed in a few years, but I expect him to beat me anyways.

 

[Eric Smit]

awesome!

 

[Eric Smit]

although he'll probably complain about power...

 

[$ub$onic]

I have no clue how I will do on these new tires. Hoping good things.
