66 degrees and low humidity. Did not use Accelleration Assist. Put it in D1 and just held on.
Wow! Has the exhaust arrived yet?

Pant! Pant! Hope it's not too loud, but just right. Could probably tolerate loud under open acceleration. I want if for my own pleasure, not to go around thundering at everybody. I know you are looking forward to the new sound.

You may be a first.

You mean SOMEBODY is getting an option BEFORE Iceman? I'm guessing that with a whole week before realtyman gets his exhaust installed there is still time for??????

I'm getting the exhaust for me. I'd like a little more "growl" especially under full throttle. Hopefully not too loud. (I'm not looking to compete with the pick up trucks or the Harleys). Only time will tell. I'll be sure to post some sound clips.

From the triflow exhuasts I've heard, they're super loud, but sound quite good as well.

Where did you purchase it from?

What happened that you needed a new steering rack?

Defective casting I was told. I have heard of it on a couple of 545's and three 645's. Haven't heard of any lately. I must have been one of the "lucky ones"!
All has been fine since.
