I'll post more info about the cat later, or you can p.m. me.

I got an o2 Bung welded into the cat. It comes with the insert for the jdm spec temp sensor thing. I figured it's better to install O2 sensor in it, rather than zip tie it to the throttle linkage haha.

I would be curious on costs, length options, and the O2 info is valuable. I essentially need to order a new cat so I should start my research and your feedback helps.

Pm'd

Took heR to get some fresh produce today. The new O2 setup is banging sometimes slightly on heat shield, so probably will need to adjust that sometime.

Went to cars n coffee this morning. Then for a drive up Angeles Forest. The type r is running really fast. Although I am tempted to put some Ohlins coilovers on. It's running mugen lowdowns, but coilovers could take the handling to the next level.

I changed the oil today with Mobil 1 5w30 and a Mugen oil filter. Then took heR out for a nice drive in the Santa Monica Mountains. A crow landed on it, which I love b/c I love crows.

please drive to my house so i can see your car and so you can take these crows that live on my roof with you!

jk'n, but once the CTR is up and running I would like to meetup and go for a drive up Glendora or Angeles area. Or big bear.

Haha

Sure I'm down for a drive, feel free to hit me up.

What a classic combo, I dig it. It's great to see you enjoying the car as well. I really need to bring mine out of storage.

just saw the exhaust photos from previous page, nice twin loop!

and the toda header, a dream piece. I tried picking one up but the cost become prohibitive. I bought an ebay version for the b20 build but im thinking once its all tuned and actually ready to drive i might go toda (to match the toda spec b cams) or hytech to match the twin loop.

also how do you like the new sound? im not sure ive heard a mugen twin loop in person but i really enjoyed my hytech.
