I hear ya. There are some things I want to try in the future, but for now, I'm really happy with how it runs, so I am content to leave the engine alone for awhile.

...and on that note...my Y pipe is done 
Leaking at the flex section from the corrugated setion that the flex 'protects'. Can't really complain too much I guess, the car is pretty low and that part gets abuse from the speed bumps in my development, etc. I don't remember how long its been on the car either (I think I did this one when I did the motor build in 07)? I can weld it up (jiggy? 
or maybe time to try out a different one (no flex, perhaps titanium?)..gotta start looking into it and see what direction to go in

Why? it's been shown time and time again that they make no more power than singles do. All personal preference, and I don't like the additional weight, nor the sound

I always had a fascination with titanium exhaust.
Isn't the rest of your exhaust titanium? I wish I could atleast custom make one for my car but that would cost an arm and a leg.

it hasn't had a stock tune since it was basically new
first had a reflashed ecu, then was one of the late beta/presale people with the utec, so it was tuned with the oem engine. When this motor went in, we made some adjustments to the utec tune, then broke the engine in, and then had the initial tune done about 1000 miles later.
