I honestly dont know i just bought this car last month. So mods will be pretty difficult to come across atm. Although headers would be my next step... Wait would that be poosible witha stock exhaust?

There are a few members here who have headers (PPE/Sikky) with the stock exhaust, and prefer it that way. I don't think I've seen any setups of Novel and stock exhaust. The added noise can become too much for some to listen to with aftermarket headers + exhaust, but personally, I find it tolerable.

very nice mod, does look very sexy but I would have put black connectors instead of blue to make the titanium pop out even more

Awesome, so headers would be next. I think i want my F to rawr so sound is not a barrier for me

You are right black sleeves would look rad. But at the moment these came with the package. Thanks for the tip

Nice to see so many other ISF owners in Houston. lol! I swear I don't see too many around town, but I know they are out there. Nice looking Intake pipe. I couldn't convince myself to pay that much for an intake pipe, but it sure looks nice.

You are right i rarely see them out there but i too know they are out there hah. We should put together a F meet.
Lems is pretty expensive but the way i looked at it was to be different from all the other fs.

I would be down for an ISF meet. No doubt it is different and in a good way. Makes my Injen intake feel even more cheap than it is. Lol!
