i cant think of many other rwd/awd cars that have a rubber type guibo.
Meh it's designed that way so I'm leaving it. It's not like the stock quibos are soft anyway.

Haha I hear ya, but the flex disk isn't something that needs to be changed.

I got rid of the other headers and got the Raceland ones. They're pretty nice. I gave them a ceramic coating so they look nice. Main reason I switched was because they already have flanges.

Okay so I skipped autocross today to get the exhaust done finally!

So I ended up using the stock section 1 from an E46 M3 and the Rogue XPipe as section 2. Then just roughly welded on some piping on the back for some tips. It's going to be redone because I'm not happy with how it looks, but I just wanted the exhaust done for now!

Can't believe I got a welder to come in on a sunday.

Here are some pics and videos:

exhaust sounds nuts.

are there some sound level restrictions you have to keep in mind?

btw I was reading earlier posts and it's spelled "Giubo" and pronounced jewbo.

The word "giunti" means "joint" in Italian. The rubber flex disc was invented by an Italian engineer named I. Boschi in the late 1940's, who
then formed a company named "Giubo SpA" who manufactered the first flex discs for the Alfa Romeo 1900. This part
became commonly known as the "Giuinti Boschi" then was shortened to "Giu-Bo" (pronounced "JEU-Bo"). Fiat SpA
also used this part in some of their cars, then ultimately BMW came up with their own version

Fun fact for the day.

If you hope to go to Tremblant or Calabogie, you're gonna need a muffler dude.

Hey do you mind posting more pics of how your oil cooler is mounted, and on the specs of it? It's time to order mine but I'm totally undecided about what size or how to mount it.

Yeah I'm going to have something made up where I can swap a section at the back with a muffler.

I'll take some pics and grab the details on the cooler for you tonight.

Got my 700lb rear springs in:




Template for my underpanel:



Looks like there is a possibility of taking this up to Mosport for its first shakedown on Tuesday!
