So I consider droning as a waa-waa-waa low frequency noise similar to that produced by unsynchronized props on a multi-engine aircraft - (I used to be a multi-engine flight instructor for the Navy). This is a loud, constant, low frequency noise that gets louder as the load increases until the...

Just a heads up- I installed the AWE OFG on my Trailhunter. Drone is not going to be an issue but there is a substantial resonance between 1500-2000 RPM in higher gears (8) when under load. AWE asks for a 800-1000 mile break-in to modulate. I completed 2000 miles this weekend and while I agree...

Installed the ENA-3T3 on TH a couple weeks ago. Easy installation, though it’s a tight fit behind the display. Took extra care to ensure wiring wasn’t pinched per instructions.Loved the improved sound! Last week started having issues with panoramic views - rear displayed when forward selected...

Nice build…smart choice on the fender flares!

lol… exactly.

The security cover is a good idea if you’re concerned about someone stealing the catalytic converter. I have a “Port” installed cover on my TH that is actually riveted to the frame. I recently installed an AWE Cat-Back exhaust, and not wanting to drill out the rivets, this easily added 3-4 hours...

On Sunday, OTT completed. Noticeable difference in shift points. ECO quicker shifts, NORMAL seemed prolonged in peak power zone. Overall feels more responsive - not going to throw you back in the seat but you’ll get the nose up a bit on launch. Too early to tell if there will be any improvements...

Hey Zach - still waiting on parts to get in but the upgrade includes Westcott Preload kit. I’ve gone ahead and re-pinned the liner up front and did the ARK Crash Bracket Delete to prep. I’ll let you know once everything is in place but I’m hoping to avoid rub issues.

I was surprised that my TH had 18’ wheels given its purpose was “overlanding” over potentially rough terrain where additional sidewall is desired. I would have preferred a 17” wheel for the additional rubber and much better selection of tires. Upgraded tires to 285/70/R18 and keeping stock rims...

ARK Crash Bracket Delete and Front Fender Liner Tuck on TH. Waiting on back orders for bumper, winch and rocker rails so trying to get the TH prepared for upgrades. ARK Crash Bracket Delete cleaned up rear of front wheel well. Super easy with included instructions. Quality product - probably...

Absolutely love your 2002. Had a Maroon 2002 in college and it was a so fun to drive - manual and R/P steering. No frills compared to today’s vehicles but just a great drive. I have a 2001 Z3 Coup 3.0 - Cinderella Slipper. Kinda like the old BMWs.

Well the winds do predominantly flow from the south so that certainly could have helped!

TH 2280 miles, started at 16.7, currently 18.9 - 19.1. Mostly highway to and from work @ 70. Using 93 octane and primarily ECO mode. Best I saw was 21.2 coming back from Corpus Christi with a good portion of that on SH 130 @ 85 - still trying to figure that one out…lol.
