Got FUNTOY ready for the first AX of the year. Changed wheels to the ones with RE71-Rs and workd on removing a rattle from the aftermarket exhaust I installed a few weeks ago. Turned out the muffler was crooked. Was able to straighten it by loosening all bolts and nuts holding it in place and using a ratchet strap, including the exhaust clamps holding the U pipes, and then pulling it into place with a ratchet strap. Will have to remember that for the future: install everything, but don't tighten any fasteners, then use ratchet straps to pull everything into place (if needed) and then tighten all fasteners.
Went for a run afterwards. Love the sound when I gun it. Sounds like a real Porsche now! And no drone.
