Interestingly, the color of your pipes does affect their heat emissions. Not out of the exit hole, but radiating from the pipe itself. Dark colors will expel more heat than light ones... which I didn’t actually believe until I lost a bet to my friend with an engineering degree.
“less than 60% humidity”... so in other words never if you live on the Gulf Coast
The day I fucked up my timing chain install with a big cam that exacerbated it. Luckily, it broke the valve off at idle. Cracked the head, and I have a new paper weight.
When my ex and I started dating, I had a 2006 Evo IX MR. He hated that car. He didn’t like the seats (too broad for the Recaros), didn’t like the look (too ricey), and he hated the attention it got me. He finally convinced me to sell it a few years into our relationship.
