Finally got around to ditching the JapSpeed K2 and replacing it with a "proper" exhaust
So after keeping my eye on online tracking for the last two days, this finally arrived on my doorstep.
Opened box to check contents...
Opted for the single layer burnt titanium tips
So after it arrived I was pretty knackered, since the last 48 hours had involved little sleep (12-hour nightshift, followed by a trip to Wheel Genie to pick up wheels, followed by another nightshift, followed by waiting another five and a half hours after shift end for DHL van to show up ), but I thought, sod it, since it's here, lets go get it fitted
At the fiters we set about taking the JapSpeed off, which involved heating up some nuts and bolts and then this happened
Anyway, after it was off we set about fitting the Invidia, which was very straight forward since all parts are labelled (just remember that the labels are for a LHD car )
And BOOM, it's on
I have to say, it's a beautiful exhaust, the welds are pure quality, the whole system just looks and feels "right"
Went out for a quick drive and noticed an odd smell and also saw some whitish smoke coming out the rear, but then I remembered I saw some white compound of sorts inside the piping, so took the Zed onto the dual carriageways to give it a little blow through
All in all, I could not be happier with my Invidia, especially after having had two JapSpeeds before.
Big thanks go out to Tarmac for selling this to me and organising the very fast delivery (From Los Angeles to Ipswich in less than 48 hours )

I do like my new lens (Canon 50mm f/1.8 II)
