yeah twas an outdoor test coz the shop was full.. i hope they don't do an indoor test next :/ coz if i don't pass it'll mean i wasted $$$ and my exhaust system and will have to get catback piping down to 2inch to be safe...

I've always said exhaust systems are one of those things you don't want to have to spend on twice so get a 2.5in mandrel system for future mods.... this situation really puts a damper on that mentality....

on a plus note, my exhaust was so free-flowing before and getting 300Km per ~40L that now with the backpressured oem muffler i'm pulling ~450Km on ~40l... i don't get it but i guess it's a plus of sorts.
