Well, picked up my car from Dinan this morning... had the intake and throttle body installed and stage 3 software completed. I haven't had a chance to really open it up yet but what's really noticeable is the throttle response. In addition, the intake under the hood looks great!
Next up...exhaust. Still undecided... go Dinan for a more refined sound and badge or go with a beast like RPI and no badge. Hmmmm

Quad exhaust!!!
Here's a vid of mine....
If you dont have plans to go quad, RPI seems to be a favorite here on the forum but between RPI and Dinan, I'd go with what sounds you like more.

Yeah most car meets is just that, a meet and greet. I try to always have activities for these events like a drive, bbq, lunch...gives people things to do instead of just walking around staring at cars. Not that that's a bad thing.
