I haven't been on here In 4 years!! I know, it's disgraceful. I am so glad to see it still going. Facebook is just full of idiots, hopefully the same caliber of type-r owners I am familiar with are still about! Glad to be back Ryan Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk

I have a piper 2.5" cat back with piper manifold and de cat. I'm looking for more power from the car and thought a bigger bore exhaust would help the flow and bit better? What exhausts and manifold do you think is a good upgrade. I would say money is not a problem but I don't particularly want...
