Yeah I sold the apexi system. To be honest I loved the N-1 look, I just wanted something different.

Right now its just stock cat-back, painted black, no shiney tips, gutted cat, and apexi downpipe with a 3" Electric Q-tec exhaust cut-out mounted below the 02 housing. Hold the switch either way and its fully adjustable, I love it. While in town its so much quieter than my 3", and it screams at full throttle when open. The install was a bitch because theres no real space to mount the big thing without worries of scrapping, because my car is pretty slammed. I had to have an exhaust shop Y off my apexi downpipe and mount it there. I even passed inspection with it .

But anyways, glad to see more dsmers are showing up! They are definitley underrated, not to many people know the potential of them otherwise everyone would own one.
If you ever feel like sellin that thing, holla at me I luv it.

I dont remember which SBR turbo it is that I will get, but I would be happy with right at 400whp on my car. I do not really care much for more because those cars break way too much past 400whp. I always like to have injectors with more than I need, so I dont have to worry about maxing out the duty cycle and such. (I always like to have room to expand and grow) Plus I always like to let my car run more on the rich side rather than the lean side. Leaning out a DSM is not my idea of making your car faster. and yea DSMLink is the best investment to put into that car

Yes, I did. I met him up in richmond today to pick it up. I didn't really buy it though. I traded the integra to him for it straight up. It runs good. but has a serious exhaust leak. I now need to find a shop that will decently charge me to remove to broken studs from the head and put some new ones in.

I swear I am really cursed to never get a car.. My moms acura was hit by a driveshaft that fell off of a damn semi this morning on the interstate, took out the front end, radiator, and who knows what else underneath the car!!!!

So I cant go get the car today.. If he still has it next Tues. lol, I will get it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
