Yeah... Google maps has worked for me in the past- but Waze does NOT.

Blackhawk is very interesting. Check out some of their wheels. I think some of it is offset by shipping/customs, but ~$600 a wheel for forged 19" Volks is insane. That's 50% off anywhere else I could find online. Seems too good to be true. As for the GruppeM, I started a thread about that not...

It was Hyundai, not Kia that I was referencing. I've heard great things about the Ioniq 5 N, and it even looks great. If that's the direction these things are going, then there's a lot to be excited about. But to that point, I'd MUCH rather have the Hyundai than a Tesla.

One can only hope, but I think we're a decade off, at least for pure electric. I don't know jack or shit because I'm not plugged into this industry in any real sense aside from watching a bunch of YT vids and yucking it up with other ignorant dipshits in forums- but I have a strong sense we're...

Nah. Signal to noise is way too low. This is all masturbatory.

I feel like even a small leak would be a noticeable change in drivability, and throw codes. Call me crazy but to me it sounds like you're describing the sound a turbo makes. I would expect an intake to exacerbate turbo noises.

No.

Actually this isn't completely true. I forgive a lot. We're still talking aren't we? I try to keep things in a vacuum because it's a small world. I don't know any of you and I don't particularly want any of you to know me. I'm 100% certain I'd get along great with each and every person on this...

I was with you up to this point. Even if it were true (it probably isn't... I have yet to see evidence of a DE5 overheating on track at all but this summer should give us all the data we need on that...), some tracks straight up ban electric vehicles from participation...

No, you most definitely are not. You'd need a spell checker, thesaurus, and AI to help you with that. And you're wrong. Check your inbox. May 8, 2023. Here's the thing guys let me let you all in on a little secret- I never said I wasn't an idiot. That is immutable fact just simply because I...

Yeah this has definitely run its course, but it is funny to think of you sitting there giggling to yourself thinking you won an internet argument. People like you can be fun sometimes but defaulting to cussing incessantly and repeating yourself wears thin eventually. I am still deeply concerned...

It's going to vary state to state. You're very likely going to need to consult a lawyer. I'd start looking into it if I were you.

FWIW the B&O in the RS5 I had was exceptional. The only better factory systems I've heard was the Meridian in a Range Rover Evoque, and the Burmester in my Macan. I also felt like the HK system in my STI was better than the ELS in my ITS. I think something might actually be wrong with it.

I feel like I'm being pulled towards this exhaust. I thought I wanted the Milltek but I'd basically never use the Sport+ mode, those crazy backfires are just obnoxious. This exhaust sounds far more mellow, but still aggressive. I'm also kind of digging the dual outlet, burnt titanium tips.

As I've probably said before, don't hold your breath on a "software fix" from the manufacturer. Some makes are worse than others, but it is a fact of life with some makes going back at least 10 years (as you've noted, mostly Japanese). It's clearly annoying you more than most others, so your fix...

Yeah these sound clips are nearly impossible to decipher... I think I can hear the infamous "waste gate rattle" sound; best description I've heard is a sound like "cymbals" after liftoff or at light throttle. But you're saying you never noticed this at all before the intake was installed? Maybe...

Good conversation. Maybe I should actually listen to the podcast- not much of a podcast kind of guy... and interestingly enough it's because I enjoy a decent stereo on my drives and I don't really have many other opportunities to listen to podcasts. $52k is only a lot of money when viewed from...

I'm over here still trying to figure out if the DE5 has a Telematics Control Unit... or if there have been real world consequences as a result of Honda/Acura specifically providing this data to insurers... but I did turn off the data sharing anyway. I work in cybersecurity by trade, but this...

Ok, sure bud. Because routinely writing 500 word essays about all the things that make you cry about the $50k car you purchased is a totally healthy headspace. God, I can't imagine living with that kind of negativity. Also you are incomprehensibly stupid. I wouldn't be surprised if you're in...

Nah, I'm done with this guy. I'm all for poking at people but this guy's exhibiting some serious mental instability. It's all in good fun until someone gets hurt. Or hurts themselves.
