@bpebler that looks tremendous and I can’t wait to see the actual build thread to follow along. Map 2 with less boost in 1-2 looks amazing to me. I know in stock form once we hit 3rd gear we are basically breaking most speed limits or getting real close, and it happens quickly, so this must just...

Put the summer tires back on. Looks like our weather has finally turned the corner.

Maybe it’s me, but I don’t think I can see myself ever owning an electric car. A hybrid, maybe. I’ve driven and or ridden in teslas and the new lightning and I feel there is such a lack of “emotion” when driving them. I also think EV’s and this massive push towards them is one of the biggest...

I don’t think you’re going to have issues driving this. I find it incredibly difficult to stall (I haven’t done it once in 2+ months). I am actually probably going to teach a teenage child how to drive manual in this car because of how good the clutch engagement and low end is as far as getting...

I feel much the same lately as well. Everything is 20-30% more than I think it should cost and it’s as if the manufacturers are somewhat half assing the product. As for this discussion I can’t think of another car that I can buy new for $52k that checks as many boxes as this car does. Are...

I think the title should have been “in defense of the FL5” given all the accolades the DE5 has been given.

@optronix i think the ADM’s paid has a lot to do with why the FL5 guys seem to have such a hard time with the DE5. I can appreciate them both and am happy there is a choice. But some of those guys just $hit all over the DE5 for whatever reason. It’s basically the same car, but the ITS looks way...

@optronix agreed - if it’s the same then for the price it’s almost a no-brainer. $1,800+ for an intake seems crazy to me but I understand the economics of it. $1,200 ish I can almost talk myself into. LOL

So that link is $1,124 but anywhere else I’ve seen it is like $1,800. Pardon my ignorance but are Blitz and GruppeM the same? And why such a huge delta in the price here with that seller?

I actually really like how they work. I don’t have to worry about wiper fluid on the hood, etc.

That is fascinating to me. I had looked on tirerack and noticed the US v FR denomination but didn’t realize the US version is tread depth 9/32” versus 9.5/32” and the width is 9.2 v 9.6. I’d love to know why they would do this.

To my knowledge there is absolutely no difference between the PS4S that comes on the vehicle and one bought from any tire store.

They do not pick up anywhere near as much debris as the stock PS4S do. It’s a stark contrast to be honest. I’ve only put about 250 miles on mine since having them installed, but in this kind of weather we are having (really not out of the 40’s or very low 50’s) they have been a great tire. As...

@StingertimeNC which window deflectors are those?

For what it’s worth, I think it’s normal. Mine has a bit of play like that also.

Garber did a day at Watkins when I had an S4. That was a fun day.

The tuxmats are awesome in the back. Like a glove and the clips they provide are really genius. Being in WNY we get the full onslaught of winter, so I wanted max protection.

I have yet to see another one on the road around here.

Bought the tuxmats and honestly cannot imagine having anything different. The coverage is so good and they fit so well.
