My monster is now on the road but i can't drive it because im still running just a downpipe. Its loud as shat but even with that loudness i was amazed that the turbo spool is still heard quite well over the exhaust. Oh yea AND...after actually putting the hood on, it does fit with the nismo motor mounts! It rests on the timing cover but that doesn't bother me. I was also surprised at how close the gear ratios are. Anyway...i love this friggin car so much now!! :)
