    Pearl

    This car is my first project car. I got it just a couple months ago and I'm going to build it up little by little as I can afford. As I mod it, I'll post updates here. My exhaust as it is now- going for a full 3" race exhaust soon, but here it is now: As of June 2015: Injen SRI Uniq rigid...

    Fun with super-cheap LED lighting!

    2013 Genesis Coupe. But you can do this with any car. So on Amazon I found some ver cheap LED lighting and picked up 4x 30 cm LED red strips (not very bright, US$6.88) , and 2x 2 waterproof LED white lighting strips (almost as bright as headlights, US$5.85 for each). You'll need a soldering...

    I got a stinger today

    My stock axleback (muffler) was way too quiet. It was so quiet I didn't know when to shift and I couldn't feel the engine enough. So I dropped the muffler yesterday and ran for a while with the stock exhaust back to the axleback section and no muffler. Yeah, it's loud but not insane. There...

    What size exhaust should I go with?

    2.0L Turbo, the turbo squeezes up to 18psi (124.1 kpa), I have an Injen intake. I read a lot about 3" exhaust being better, but here at TorqueCars there's an article saying anything below about 2.4L should have 2.5" exhaust (which my car has- but the stock exhaust is terrible with bends and...
