What did you do to your FL5 today?

[Unity Performance]

I had legamax on my fk8, I liked it, but yes, your right on the quieter side. From the HKS site, it states that the hi power is supposedly a tad bit louder, guess we'll see.

Hi-Power I's definitely on the louder side, but not overbearing either with a stock DP. With an aftermarket DP you can expect some level of drone with the Hi-Power

Installed my Radium PVC AOS catch can.

 

[Unity Performance]

It's no longer CW for the next few years! Got it wrapped with KPMF Blue Black Iridescent, and the final outcome is even better than I imagined!

Love the shift from a very vibrant blue, to purple, then navy blue, and even black, depending on the lighting at the time. When the car was revealed to me the side marker was still orange, and I requested if that could be wrapped as well. The guys did it on the spot, and it's so much cleaner!

Over the winter the car will receive tint, caliper color change, wheel swap to something else in Silver and likely 19's, maybe a lip (still can't decide on one), and my next post will showcase the APR Diffuser that we just installed as well.

This is not new, even the entire Group A kit for thousands of dollars is made in China lol

Wrong body kit its not made in china. Only the lhd center console was made in china also the tailamps. The mugen steering wheel its made in thailand. Im not 100% sure because i trew away my boxes but im pretty sure the body kit was made in japan. Because the fitment was really good .

If you need proof heres the front bumper garnish clearly it says it was made in japan.

Looks good, just wish the center would light up also

Where would the center mount brake light go if the center would also light up? Would you have to do the cybertruck thing where you take away light when you brake?

A picture was posted on this very forum months ago showing that the Group A kit is made in China. Some of Mugen's carbon parts are made in China or Thailand, it's not a bad thing. I'm just saying that so people know even famed Mugen parts are made in China, as long as the QC, materials and finish are top notch it really doesn't matter where it's made.

Installed my Radium AOS.

I am very curious why you chose the AOS over the dual catch cans?

I just purchased the dual catch can kit, but have not yet installed it.

based on my limited understanding, the dual catch can is "better"?

Kind of hate not been made on japan though . Some of their parts for the price but im pretty sure they where made in japan i kind of take pride of that when I buy there parts.

I kind of dont like them to be lit up my opinion they already are really bright lol but yea would look cool.

Now that I see both types side by side, you’re right it wouldn’t work as the Mugens don’t have a red LED outline. A buddy of mine has these and they center lights up brighter

I have always ran single AOS’s on all my cars no issue’s for street use. Never had any issues with running just one. In general single AOS would require more frequent check of oil buildups in the can, where in the case of a dual system the second can acting as a backup if the first one fills up. This implying you’re tracking or pushing your engine hard all the time. For street use and short light sprints a Single AOS works fine. I had it on the fk8, and for me to reach 2-3mm of oil buildups it took roughly over a year. The Radium at least has a dip stick which make checking a whole lot easier.

Watch out for smoke from the exhaust after installing the dual Radium kit. We've had a couple of customers report it.

Reminds me of the R34 GTR paint scheme.
