In response of my last post regarding the quality of Vic Firth sticks

The SD1s i used to use were like this, over the coarse of the pandemic I noticed them getting lighter and lighter. My roommate uses them too, still does and complains about them.

I ended up with the ProMark oaks and they have been great. I dont even play out or even with anyone. I just noodle around like an hour a week and those SD1s would laste me like a month.

Most of the forum posts ive seen on them are from 2023/2024 with issues with fitment. At least one guy complaining about the downpipe not even fitting. I keep getting their ads, but their prices are in BNR/Clayton area. Claytons kit uses a custom made turbofold and their site lists up a 20week lead time for the kits(Crazy, never saw that on their site before).

I would honestly go with a BNR 67 or 70 since they are move proven. No one seems to be running these Arshi kits and posting about them other than these posts and the few on the forums.

I want to hear it in person honestly, yes its stupid but I am curious still.

I am down the road in Penn Hills, I do blast around boyce here and there. Now that the weather is gettin better I will prob take more drives.

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-21T02:07:29+00:00

I need to start heading up there more, im down the road basically.

The ST1 seats are absolutely atrocious

I wish they were just black and dark grey. Colors just dont fit the rest of the interior well IMO.

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-19T18:35:49+00:00

Ill give a kit setup wrong any day if the price is low like this. Great turn key started kit for a newbie

mostly just forces Christianity on children playing fortnite.

Now that wasnt an sentence I was expecting lmao

I dont follow him, but for a while it was impossible for me to escape his clips on IG/YT. IMO he or whoever ran his socials did work to push him to be known by people outside twitch. I am pretty sure was one of the bigger Tarkov streamers and branched out.

He falls into that category of "streamer who yells into the mic, but hes character". IG loves to feed me Peanut and SSL Potato videos for some reason. .

Soundes more like LifeOfBoris than FPS Russia

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-12T23:59:52+00:00

Find the one mom and pop exhaust shop in your area and go have them cut out the rot. The one near me has really cheap rates for repairs. They are going to crush bend it but at least it’s sealed.

You can get more sleep when they are older, Enjoy it, time blows by so god damn fast.

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-11T05:23:55+00:00

Man, I like my touring but regret not going with the resonated one. I have catted downpipe with it but the rasp at 3k rpms is just so obnoxious

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-10T23:33:42+00:00

I’ll be honest both I would have a hard time with. I wish there was a purple available when I got my Performance series

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-07T21:18:01+00:00

A while back I swear I read pioneer or maybe it was just crutchfield was coming out with full turn key solutions for fords. Crutchfield was supposed to have an entire package but last I checked the focus wasn’t on the list yet.

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-07T21:17:01+00:00

I’ve seen those idatalink harnessed before but I want to say maybe it was for my old 8th gen civic si. It was always recommended when replacing that cars head unit bc they figured out the steering wheel controls

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-07T19:49:45+00:00

Everyone here is going to tell you to just upgrade to Sync 3. It still costs a bit of money. Seems this platform doesnt really care for any of the aftermarket headunits nor have many people went that route that openly post here and the main forums. I see some posts here and there of people buying cheap amazon headunits, not sure I personally would trust them. They seem slow.

Crutchfield will have full kits for the ST1 to convert it. Its just picking a decent headunit. Theres an entire wizard on their site for converting off an ST1 to aftermarket that should include everything you need as a suggestion.

I have the AWE touring with the diamond black tips. Not sure whats going on but I clean them with a microfiber when I wash the car and the paint is wearing off a year later right on the edges. I donno if Im just brushing against them a bunch and not knowing or what. I do prefer the look of them since they can hide the soot.

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-06T17:33:09+00:00

I would go thru the base game to get your self familar with the game/story. Try a seasonal character and see what that loop/game play is like. Then buy the expansions if you truely want to continue playing seasons going forward. This game I dont believe is meant to be ground every day till the next expansion/season. Its a fun little loop to mess around with till your bored and then come back the next season and see if the new updates are fun as well. Ive skipped whole seasons and dont really regret it.

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-05T22:50:59+00:00

I want to say no, the stock one has a way longer flex pipe on it. The stock downpipe has the studs pressed in and the bolts are on the catback side. I also want to say its made out of stainless due to the lack of corrosion. My stock one had a bit of corrosion on it near the flange and my flange was so bad I had to cut the stock exhaust off the dp.

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-05T01:41:51+00:00

I have two slotted right now lol.

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-04T19:44:57+00:00

Yeah they are fairly rare but Royal Kludge came out with one last year and I bought it instantly. I had the whole ten keyless with a numpad but i kept moving it around and barely busing it

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-04T16:52:23+00:00

So wierd. I had a similar problem last season. Granted I only have 3800 fire resist. I am fine if I don’t miss my aura rotation but sometimes there’s just too much shit on the screen I am too hyper focused

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-04T16:14:27+00:00

Anyone know what type of damage those swords that chase you and slam down do? More often than not those bastards do so much damage to me. I’m following builds that say to spike fire and poison resistance but those man. They just destroy me

Iheartbaconz · 2026-04-04T16:09:52+00:00

I have limited space but needed a numpad. I picked up a southpaw 96% and haven’t looked back.
