Today was a big day,
- Installed Magnaflow exhaust
- Installed APR Stage 1

There's a significant change in character, it may take me some time to digest it. I'm 150 miles in.

Unscientific observations:
- Much faster in any situation
- Transmission downshifts seem smoother
- MPG is way up (i hadn't seen 40s when cruising)
- There is drone, especially if using cruise control; when manually feathering the gas, seems acceptable
- If is possible to drive very quietly, but requires granny mode and the appropriate cruising speed

I know I'm new here, but I recently test drove a 2013 Premium Plus and expected the right mirror to tilt down when in reverse. I was surprised, when the mirror actually tilted slightly UP.

Here's what worked for me. Select right mirror, put car in reverse (the mirror will not tilt) then use the **** to adjust position of right mirror to where you want it. Put it in drive, the mirror should return to original setting. Then place in reverse again, and watch what happens. Hopefully it will tilt to where you've set it.

Thanks huragantzwo, that is the correct procedure for setting the reverse mirror tilt.

Went to the track in Englishtown, NJ today to test the APR Stage 1 and MagnaFlow exhaust.

Ran a 12.899 sec. pass at 107 mph.

2nd attempt, 300 lb of luggage in the trunk. 70 degrees, clear day.
