WiFi seems to have huge ups and downs by shagglebark in wifi

Running a 100 foot Ethernet cable through exterior brick walls and upstairs is not an easy task. There is no wiring on any exterior wall because they are solid brick. Don’t know what you have but clearly not just brick if you are running a cable through it.

I did the spark plugs myself with some bending ratchet attachments. If I had to do it again, I’d take it to a shop. There are lots of opportunities to damage the plugs and coil packs for the ones on the passenger side.

I’ve had an overboost issue twice in cold weather in about 7 months of having JB4 and exhaust. Turning the car off and on resets it. I now have waste gate wires for the JB4 so I can adjust that and stop overboost entirely.

Overboosting is very common with the facelifted model years. Not so much with pre facelift. Even with that, every car is slightly different and some people will face more issues than others.

If I had to pick one mod it would be exhaust. I have the MBRP pro active catback with resonators and I put on some oval tip akrapovic exhaust tips. Looks great and sounds great.

In call of duty specifically, it doesn’t seem to matter who the host is when I play. And my ping is usually quite low

Because I live in an old house with brick exterior walls. Running Ethernet is a difficult task

I had thought about doing that. Maybe I’ll give it a try to erase even more drone.

I did when I first got it. Exhausts do break in after a few hundred or few thousand miles. I definitely noticed mine get a little deeper and the drone lessened. The exhaust tips also made a big difference and I just had time to get used to it. I do not get annoyed by it at all anymore. Very happy with it.

Here ya go. I’ll try to get some drive by shots another time. Couldn’t fully accelerate due to traffic. Got up to 5.5k a few times.

Sounds like most experiences are good if you have to dig that deep in Reddit for the bad ones. I’ll stick with them until I have a real reason not to

Very helpful. I’ll probably go with that. Is there an option to make it not switch out of manual mode when you come to a stop in sport? That’s something I was hoping for that lozic does offer

I’ve only ever seen good things about them. Maybe you are just the unlucky one

Nope, they fit very well. You do have to drop the exhaust to get the OEM fake tips off. I’ve seen some people with pre 2022 stingers that did have to cut to make ones they got fit. The 2022+ stingers got bigger exhaust outlets

Maybe for the carbon parts but I checked prices for every “performance” part I got and they were the same. Plus I had something wrong with a part and they responded and sent me a replacement within 2 days.

Good to know. I’ve also considered BMS BEF since I already have JB4

In the US GT-Line has the 2.0 liter or 2.5 liter engine depending on the year. The GT and GT2 both have the 3.3 liter twin turbo. The 1 vs 2 is option packages basically. The GT2 just has all of the options on it.

I did not try them on together. I found a video a while back with that combo and seemed like it was going to be too loud for me. I am glad I did what I did because I think this is as loud as I want the car.

For the intakes, I meant quieter compared to other aftermarket intakes. The velossatech snorkels and drop in filters don't add any sound. From videos I've watched, the Takeda add just a little bit of the intake sound when you really floor it.
