There are days when I would love to go back to the mini 1" stock headers, restricted cat converters, the excessive back pressurized maze-designed exhaust system. Not forgetting putting back the stock map tuned for retarded ignition and low grade petrol AF curves - and of course putting back all the emission restrictions that the manufacturer hides in the oem mapping. What else... oh yes, almost forgot to put back the motorcycle size TB back in there!

Not reinventing the wheel. Just making ourselves a Porsche car (instead of a DOT restricted vehicle).

My wife used to like the car before... she hates it now To each their own!
