I will do soon. I am active military and own/operate two businesses so I work ~ 140hrs per week. Virtually zero free time .. I may be able to get one today! Fingers crossed!

Since TheLastDetailNV's plan and successful execution looks like THE only smart and cost effective way to get great sound, we should work on finding reputable shops/ forum members with garages to get this work done in all metro areas. I for one am in the New York Metro area and I dont really know anyone but would be open to suggestions. Hopefully members can help out eachother by suggesting areas throughout the country.

Ok guys, the road was a little busy and it was the only shot I had at getting a quick video tonight. Quick video in sport + in sport shift (not manual) up to about 65, then a light take drive off in s+ sport shift as well.

The shifts are definitely more distinct in manual mode so I will get more for you guys as time permits

Lol.. i wish I could say I was exaggerating. 9 military hrs, 8 hrs detailing vehicles doing paint correction ect, then another 3 hrs processing orders from my webstore (I have my own detailing products), answering business emails and sending out distribution contracts. Quick nap then do it all again. You have no idea!! Follow me on Ig @thelastdetailnv and see my posts from 5pm - 3am. I can prove it!!

Got it to work by pasting it in google. Sounds perfect. And all was done is both mufflers removed and x pipe installed.
