Some exhaust fitters are quite lazy and mount it on an angle so that they don't have to change piping.

When myself and my brother (ANDROS) got ours fitted, they changed piping and also made flanges to bolt onto the original flanges.

swore about it still being rich

decided the best way to alleviate my frustration was to order more parts so today i ordered the following

1 set of street tyres
1 set of race slicks
progressive rate springs
front and rear sway bars


So next time I follow you am I going to get high? ;) LMAO


Did you notice any power increase with the fuel loaded air being sucked up by your intake? :P

Looking forward to the new ride mate.

Nope, I didn't. The RA wasn't manual enough for me :P Damn shame that they don't make one.
