Thumbs up Me Taking Amp's Beautiful CYM For a Short Spin

Well fellow FD owners, I now know what it feels like for the few fortunate ones that own CYMs . A couple months ago Amp gave me the honor to take his gorgeous CYM around the block and let me tell you, the car is a dream to drive!

Thanks again Jio, here's a short vid for you guys to enjoy

Haha lmao! Yea yea yea, I got on it a little in 2nd in the beginning of the video, but 1.) I had no idea he was filming 2.) I knew he was standing outside watching me with his baby and 3.) Just the fact that he would let me take it around the block without him I was surprised.

But...to both of your points, when I finally did notice that he was filming I thought huh does Jio want me to start banging gears out in this biatch?? haha

But, don't worry I will try and convince Jio to let me do an encore for you gentlemen

what exhaust is on the car.. i want a deeper tone but i dont want to cause heat issues. straight pipe to an Apexi GT is what i have.. i think racing beat would be good but once again i have no experience with them..
