Honestly, I like the tone of the Innotech better.

The Akrapovic is a great sounding exhaust but the resonance at 3000-4000 rpm drove me bananas and it has a sort of flat tone. It's a fantastic exhaust, don't get me wrong, and it's miles lighter than the Innotech, but I like the Innotech tone better.

Everyone likes a different sound for sure. Thats why I'm on the Dinan now after having the remus and vorsteiner.

just want to throw a shout out to a shop that totally took care of me. who was also referred to me by a fellow member and also a fellow clear bra friend. whats funny i realized from his building that other friends have also gotten work done there. recognized his shop in their pictures.

Johnnh at International Autobody really took care of me well. i wasn't getting anything major done. painted reflectors and some work on my other car. he totally took care of me. GREAT work GREAT customer service GREAT turnaround time. he even let my car chill there on the rack while the wheels got done.

he said he's able to do club pricing for us. If you have any questions just call him. very nice guy.

I'm thinking about powder coating my 220M Wheels.

Does anyone have pictures of their powder coated stock rims? I don't want to do it if it looks bad.
