I was about to say I don't have it but now that you mention it sometimes I have had this odd buzz noise that goes up and down. But haven't heard it in a while.. maybe because my HVAC is always on now or got some windows down.

I've triggered the ECU fan with ISTA and heard it run and it sounds more to the right IMO than that buzz noise. I've searched before and it seemed to be the buzz was from waterpump but I'm not sure on that.

I have an 11 and never heard this sound. The DME is under the hood.
Must be a fan for something else? I don't have the CIC so maybe its in there.

Did you end up doing exhaust mod yet? I saw you had trouble finding a shop eh.

I'm doing mine this Friday.

I have a friend of a friend that will be helping me out next week, I can't wait to have this sorted out.

Also, I'm installing KW V2s this weekend and will most likely be hitting the track for the first time ever in June, pretty pumped.

Nice, I've only d one drags but next time I think I'll give a try at the time attack/track thing they do here.

You'll see coil-overs are pretty nice to!

I had KW Street Comforts on my last 335, I went with the V2s this time around as I wanted something a bit stiffer/sportier.

My friend has his set to tail fogs, like in Europe. It basically puts his brake lights on. He just taps it when someone is tailgating him.

Looks great! Love the White on Red.
Might want to consider painted reflectors since they stand out so much on the white.

hey mawzi , rsyed07 and hellokitty

How is the smell with full catless + resonators & iS mufflers? Any comparison to just catless DPs? I have catless DPs now and don't notice any smell.

I have catted downpipes + resonators. I notice a little smell. You'll notice a lot more with no cats at all. Muffler doesn't do anything for smell.

What mix are you running? I have an E85 station near me, but it consistently tests low so I avoid.

I run a 35-40% mix. Will bump that up down the road when I upgrade my lpfp.

Probably because you still have secondaries in place haha...

You'll definitely notice the smell if you go careless DP and replace secondaries with resonators.

Not terrible when running e85 but you'll notice it for sure.

How would you rate the loudness? With the stock iS exhaust being a ~3/10 and iS+catless downpipes being a ~5/10

Wow guys. Just got my new exhaust tips and resonators put in place of second cats and gotta say sounds pretty nice. Start up you definitely hear it's deeper. At around 5k RPM no more rice rasp. There is still the natural high tone but it's really not as much rice.

Overall loudness I'm not sure if it's louder rather than just having a different tone now.

For the burples/pops it is definitely louder and I adore it. Overall pretty happy.

6/10. The iS exhaust is pretty tame even with resonators in place of secondary cats.
