I haven't even heard a cold start. We let it cool down, but I still think it was a warm start. When I was about to leave, I accidently pressed my start engine button twice because I didn't know my car was on LOL!

Even after I ordered and paid for my ATAK, I was still having doubts (ask Josh how many times I bugged him about switching to Corsa while waiting for my ATAK to come off backorder).

Once it showed up and my buddies came over to help with the install some of the doubt went away.

After the install was done, and we did the first cold start, 100% of all my doubts were immediately gone….been like a kid at Christmas ever since.

Glad you posted a pic of your Borla with a diffuser. Curious who/where you got it from? TIA
