took it in to my exhaust specialist today, for $80 he removed the catalytic converter, and the rear sausage muffler thing.
then bought a pod filter.
Sounds awesome now!

tomorrow i'm finally getting the puncture repaired as well.

Just dont let kids inhale next to your carcinogen belching exhaust now

Hmm...so stock box minus the top cover..and stock pipe connecting the pod and the TB? Isn't the pod now sucking in hot air from the engine bay? Also is that a 4 inch pod or a 3 inch?
Did you do anything to the front intake of the car feeding the box?

Technikhaus · Post by **Technikhaus** » Tue Jul 03, 2012 9:11 pm

4" pod, stock lower box.
I'm planning on making a shroud to go around the sides of the box in the next few weeks

Nice. which pod did you go for? El-Cheapo or any good brand? I am thinking of picking up a K&N and making my own TB-to-Pod pipe tomorrow

Technikhaus · Post by **Technikhaus** » Tue Jul 03, 2012 9:54 pm

It was a cheapo really, $50 calibre brand.

That unit is an additional $300

The alarm gets shipped out today

I had to wait a few days for the International Bank Transfer to go through

Today I also bought a boot release actuator so I can operate the boot from the remote

As well as some reed switches to make a circuit so that the remote start will not kick in with the car in gear

Technikhaus · Post by **Technikhaus** » Thu Aug 16, 2012 5:40 pm

My package finally arrived

Viper 5904 Remote start alarm, two stage shock sensor, digital tilt sensor, Dual zone microwave sensor, Battery backup Siren, and window automation system

Not at all over the top for a car worth 5K :p

Also Installed this Sony head unit, it will do for now.
I just wanted something with AUX, and USB as I was sick of not having it.
It will do until I have the money to upgrade to an Alpine unit.
