    My setup on my S5 is headers and awe non res dp and awe track exhaust. For a long time, I still had my cats but ever since putting on the headers it is really loud, and I was wondering if the awe touring does a good job in toning it down? After the headers I can no longer hear the supercharger whine which is sad.

      Hey hey, I also heard it was a little more gnarly before the fire. It was my first time - and we started going in from Silver Fork to Long Canyon. I have a video posted a few days before this one which shows that section! The 100 series with sliders should be fine. My 4Runner is basically 33s & sliders, with stock TRD Pro suspension and aftermarket springs. The LX in the video is fully stock minus 35” tires. We didn’t make it to the top due to snow, so I can’t comment on anything past what you saw in the video but it seems relatively mild. It was absolutely beautiful - you should head back out!

      Sweet! I like the look of the GLCs - especially the coupes. I know they weigh a little more than SQ5s as well, especially with that V8. However, kind of apples to oranges comparison. Used 2021 GLC comparables are about $22-28k more, and the SQ5 with stock turbo you only need intake, HPFP, and flash/E85 for this if someone wants to mod. (downpipe doesn't actually do much). I think a better direct stock comparison to the GLC63s range is the Audi SQ8 with the 4.0TT.

I've been running E85 on the car for over a year with no issues - except you need to change your spark plugs with much more frequency and check your PCV system as well!

I'm sure it's a huge bump from standard - and I've been running E60 as well.
