Luckily I have a ROW tune on my car. My only issue that I have is purely sound. I have a deluboz v1 muffler which is nice and light but with the cat-less setup (ebay headers [which by the way seem to be built fairly well and are wrapped.]) and my own made bypass the whole thing is just too raspy and well I think too low on the back pressure. I was hoping adding an S muffler I might increase some of the back pressure and possibly gain some of the lost low end power... but idk if it works like that. I also put on a very small UDP from precision chassis works for good measure.
