Shhhhhhh my wife might hear you. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
We will see shes a tight fit in this thing and may need some customization. The engine is much wider then the transom area. So I'll be playing with it soon. I have most of the stuff. I need to get the 2 s pipes made and get me tips. I don't like the ones I got with the kit. I just want it to sound like this.

TGrace and I were discussing the blue engines the other day. Iโ€™m pretty sure he said Cobalt told him it was not an option any longer when he bought his R7. Something about the warranty.

I believe 2 R5โ€™s left the factory in 2016 with a 520. One is for sale now in Atlanta. BBP has been drooling all over it.
