As stated, I'd like to see if anyone is running this piece of exhaust. Looks like a great idea, and most preferably the next upgrade that will come with the car, along with the correct exhaust system.

Any opinions about the part/company would be greatly appreciated.

P.S. To inform everyone further on my car. Though it is a complete palm to forehead. My leak was neither the upper oil pan or lower oil pan. God it hurts to type this.

Turns out, the gasket on the chain tensioner blew out. But hey, give me a break, the way it was leaking oil (from looking under the car) it looked as if it was coming from both pans. And you have to also remember it didn't begin to leak oil until I removed the lower pan to replace the pick up tube. So I jumped to the conclusion my RTV job wasn't good enough. . .and so on and so forth.

While I am talking about my car, the next thing to make it a decent daily is A/C. I have the compressor from the SR on, (I don't have KA engine anymore) and was wondering if anyone knew of a reputable company for A/C lines for USDM to SR compressor.

Thanks everyone!

EDIT!
Also, while I have it on my mind. I notice on cold starts (morning or when car has sat for longer than 2-3 hours) the engine doesn't seem to go into "cold start mode", I presume these engine's on cold start open all 4 injectors until it starts. It feels like they are just going through cycle and takes a bit more to get the car cranked. Anyone had the problem? I have read something about the orange wire to iginiton or something, but I don't believe that is it - and when I talked to Yury, he wasn't sure about that wire.

Oh wait. Also. My car idles at 1000 RPM. 1400 with headlights on. Attempted setting TPS, but to no avail. I have my IACV turned in a BIT too far I think (normally its 2 threads in, I'm about 4 threads in). Can't find any vacuum leaks, but I guess going once over again won't hurt.

Sorry for all the questions, they all tend to come to me as I type.

PBM Cobra pipe was big talk here about a year ago. Haven't heard anything about it recently, though.
