  1. Another thing to look out for if you feel you are low on power is the secondary intake flap. Make sure that the flap is init's closed position when installing the cone filter otherwise it will not close and will hit the cone filter at low RPM.
  2. My favorite tire brand is Hankook. I have them on all my cars. I gave up on Michelins, Pirellies and even Contis! I would consider them for track use if I ever tracked my car. My Hankooks lasted 18 months, and the rears are almost due for a change.
  3. Interesting, on my 3rd Gen GS460, US color names were different to ours. We shared the same codes as UK and ROW. Mine was Metador red mica.
  4. Can someone please elaborate what the OP did? Is there a way to have that intake flap open always?
  5. Holy crap that looks intimidating. I wouldn't want you creeping up behind me.
  6. Sounds just about perfect to me. Love the pitch on WOT and just enough to keep the coppers off my back!
  7. I've installed RSR springs on my GSF and love the stance. I have installed springs on many of my sedans in the past, never did I ever have problems with shocks. I trust these products.
  8. Here you go! All done! Tanabe Medalion Touring with custom carbon Fiber Tips! Video will follow:
  9. I don't believe in pictures... https://youtu.be/vSKUd4IPvBA
  10. Take a stock header, remove the cat and weld a straight pipe instead, and bingo. you get power. That's where it all starts. The next choice would be if the manufacturer wishes to design an equal length or long tube system. Either way, they both give you power gains.
  11. My GSF is 100% stock with the exception of Suspension, Intake, Exhaust and Chassis! 🙂
  12. Took off the Tanabe's and got the Greddy Supreme SP's installed. Tanabe's sounded great but droned like hell and the tips weren't aggressive enough for me. The Greddy's are much quieter and look great and give off a howl at higher RPMs which is awesome. I'll have a few drive by and in cabin videos up soon. Enjoy https://youtu.be/zITXhgw8pQM
  13. What do you guys think? Bad design? Loss of power, one tip getting dirtier than the other. Check out these videos. https://youtu.be/niar4EPjo6g https://youtu.be/1en8wgpXf14
  14. Got the AFe ( Takeda ) cone style Intake tube and box installed. I did that for two reasons.. 1. Sound 2. Looks I did not expect any performance from this system, in fact.. i was expecting some loss in performance especially mid to top end. I speak from experience as I've done this on many cars before this one. I am happy with the results, love the deep throaty sound the car makes when you step on it. I don't feel I've lost power either. However, I have noticed throttle is more responsive initially... almost feels like I've installed a throttle controller. A video of the system being installed. I'll post some more videos shortly. https://youtu.be/hGuQVpcNI4A
