    Gen 2 clutch options?

    I did the following initial mods when I got my stock Gen 2 10 years ago (I did more with the years but these initial ones made a big difference IMO): - Double D Clutch - Removed the CAT and replaced with x-pipe. Kept the original cans and the sound improvement was enough for me. The x-pipes are...
