Le Mans blue 135is small build

ISLong · 01-31-2014, 11:08 AM

All the exhaust back together

ISLong · 01-31-2014, 11:11 AM

Outside the shop. Leave the intercooler exposed or put the mesh back on??

ISLong · 01-31-2014, 11:16 AM

Very happy with all the AA stuff so far. Everything fit great and we had everything installed in about 2 hrs. The stuff looked wonderful....I wish some it was more exposed haha! Should have my tune for it early next week and I'm gonna try and get a dyno to see what kind of power it's making. I can hear the turbo spool up now which I love, even with the stock intake. The downpipe with the PE sounds amazing....it doesn't drone any worse then it did before with just the PE and sounds pretty normal inside the car in normal driving. Under acceleration though.....

haha

Big shoutout to Manny at Active Autowerke...if anyone is interested in doing the same you should definitely give him a call, great guy to work with!

How's the fitment for DP and FMIC?
Any cut or something?

Any video clip for exhaust note with DP?

You have to trim a small section for the fmic but it's pretty easy. As you can see in the pictures it's much bigger than the stock one. All the hardware and brackets are included and the fitment was great.

I've got before and after videos and I'm trying to get them up and going.

Can't wait to hear the difference! I'm curious... Did you get a check engine light? I'm sure thats been discussed a thousand times before but I havent yet started to look into a DP for my car yet. If it would throw a CEL, is there a fix?

It sounds absolutely amazing! It went on very easily and it looks like it is a very quality part so I would definitely recommend AA.

It will throw a CEL but most software you can find for our cars has an option to remove it. I have a jb4 on the way and it has a downpipe CEL fix option so it won't throw a CEL for that particular "problem".

What made you go with active autowerkes over other downpipe/exhaust setups?

blueajax · 02-12-2014, 11:29 AM

ISLong I'm assuming you aren't worried about your warranty? I'm in Greenville would love to see this car. Great job!

I've heard from tons of people who have used their stuff about the quality of their products... which was demonstrated in the install... I've heard people complain about other companies DP's not wanting to fit the best and taking forever to install... we did the intercooler and the Dp's from start to finish in less than 2 hours.

Plus, Manny is a great guy and he hooked me up. Definitely give him a shout if you are considering some upgrades

... he even put the video up of my "after" because I couldn't get it to work on my ipad.

Very nice setup, I have the same setup on my 135is minus the intercooler. Sounds great!
