Quick start up video after the header install. ECU is on its way to RR racing for a tune!

Congrats on finishing up that major mod! Any thoughts from tune?
For my set up it wasn’t any huge power jump, not that I could tell from butt dyno.
Largest change was throttle response and mid end power.
Hope you’ll get to do a vid with exhaust note while driving hard. My car sounds so different when on track.

Thanks! The tune mainly was to get rid of the CEL, and I definitely feel the difference midrange. Seemed to pull harder every time I did the suggested re-learning process (4K-6K pulls in 4th gear). And I agree about the improvement in throttle response! I'll try to get a decent quality video when we get some dry weather here. The sound is definitely much better with the headers, especially at higher RPM's, although the Icode exhaust is already pretty quiet.

Are you fully catless or does your centerpipe have cats?

Your RCF is hands down the best overall build, IMHO.

I 100% agree. I found this thread when I was researching the RCF and I think it is one of the best on the forum.

Changed up the rear F badge.





Got some wiring to do. Sequential turns, DRL's, and puddle lights.

I'm sure you can get a shop install them on your current centerpipes.

Will need to do some research on that. Not sure how easy or cheap to do since it is Titan.

it will probably be cheaper and easier to find Stainless steel high flow cats. You can get titanium flanges, v-band or 2 bolt welded on the center pipes, then attach ss cats that way.
