New member , but I've had the car for 2 years now. I modified everything on it within the first 2 weeks of ownership, but then left it as-is ever since. Looking to start modifying again with a new wing (cf with camera cut-out), c/f rear splitter, c/f front lip. Maybe side skirts and maybe the GTR style headlights lights, and maybe a tune, so I'm looking for ideas and opinions on here! I love the upgraded sound system, and I love the big brakes, so I'm leaving all of that alone for now.

2014 Q60S RWD 6MT
Rohana RFX11 wheels staggered 20x9 front 20x10 rear in brushed bronze
Tein basis coilovers
K&N Performance Intake
muffler delete

Prior modified cars
2005 Acura TSX 6MT - mildly modded
1989 Honda CRX - highly modded​​​​​​​

Those Rohana wheels are gorgeous.

My favorite look for the Coupe is the mid-model front Sport bumper (like yours) with the OEM rear spoiler and IPL side skirts.

Thanks! I've definitely considered that combination!

I do love that color of Rohana’s

Got her out for some freash air this July 4th 2020

I could stare at any G37S coupe for hours , the design was so far ahead of its time

She does look good dressed in Black !

Gonna be a week or so until theyre mounted. Little bit of sanding and polishing to do on a few clear coat drips but its a spare time project and not much spare time these days. This is my baby theyre going on which i also painted (frost white with heavy pearl). Custom reshaped rear fenders +2" each side, gtr wing, carbon fiber hood vents and bra.

Question to everyone. I currently have a 2011 AWD coupe. I simply have a Muffler delete with Megan burnt tips. I was wondering tho, what would be the result if I were to get a tune without having test pipes. Im actually dont want flames, only that burble and occasional backfire.

I dont think there will be any appreciable gains from a tune with only muffler delete. If the car felt faster after the tune then its likely a placebo. Burbles, pops and backfires are from unburnt gas. Your stock cats will be counterproductive to this as they are designed to help combust unburnt fuel leaving engine. Also your proposed tune will be for the parts you have installed right now. Installing test pipes or an intake at a later time may require a re tune.

I get you, but im already getting very very subtle burbles and pops when i let off the gas at 3K rpm. It rumbles and burbles a bit. If i were to just get a pops and bangs tune with my current simple setup, wouldnt it pronounce or make the pops louder and more frequent?
