Do you have a DP on the car? Could hear the turbo quite clearly.

Also what suspension you running?

yea, I have a stock exhaust w/ a Wagner DP (and some black 90mm tips). I just recently installed that DP, gas smell outside the car is a little strong so I am considering to change it over to sport cat model. Did it smell pretty bad when you were behind me? Just curious if you were able to smell it.

And I have the KW HAS Kit. It's on full low right now, but I plan on raising it up a bit once my new wheels come in (in about a week or two).

Nope, no smell I had my windows open, but nothing.

I'm planning sport cat soon, also.

PM me if you ever need to use a lift to work on the car!

Thanks! Wish I would have talked to you a couple weeks ago when I installed that DP and the suspension on my car lol (by myself in the garage using some jack stands)

And glad you weren't able to smell it. It doesn't bother me but I feel bad if I go through any drive thrus. I turned on the system that turns off the engine when stopped, to help minimize the gas smell.

If you need a hand installing any parts on your car, hit me up. Glad to help out. See you around! -Ken

Sounds good! Maybe when the sport cat comes in!

Lol I must admit I snickered a little when I realized that the start-stop system was active on your car at the light in Bellevue

haha, yea it is annoying. I've never had that system on since I bought the car new. I wondered why it even came with the car. But just trying to be considerate of others. Have had it on for about a week now, another reason I need to change over to the sport cat version!

Hey buddy! Looks like I followed you on the way home again! Lol. I was in the grey Q7 and flashed my lights at you a couple of times

I saw another MG M2 5 seconds away at the Bellevue transit center also!

In my seven plus months of ownership, I have only seen one M2 on the road. It was by University Village (a LBB M2).

I have been seeing quite a few around! I see a couple of MG, 1 AW, and a few LBBs on the regular around offices in Bellevue
