No, they still come with light blue filter. I replaced mine to match the engine bay color scheme.

Sabastion... you getting a commision or something? I love mine too but wow!
It's good that you're spreading the word though. Maybe we can correct cp-e's opinion of the Solara market.

Good luck Luce, and to save your leather, get yourself a drool bucket before you test her out.

Who is Sabastion ?!? Maybe yeah I know he knows Moke ! :P
Sebastien or at least Sebastian :P I know that you must like abbreviation..so Sebas would be perfect. hehe How to destroy a first name...call bulldozer2thec :P OK ok ok...I'm getting back on the subject !

Hhahaha about commission or something...nothing at all...I could ask Josh ;) For real, I make it for the love of the product. I make it because they deserve it. I make it because they develop products for few car...and Solara is one of those. Isn't it's good bang for the bucks guys ?? I would say definatively a big YEAH !!

It won't omit the lag issue (shifting delay) but it will help with acceleration for sure. ;)

You should register and let him know about it (Sebas) since you swear by it.

Just letting you know what others think.


Here it is for those that won't go through the trouble of registering....

The CPE doesn't make much power. They hide that fact by selling you a crap piggyback that makes the majority of it then grossly over price the dumb thing.
AFA the exhaust. It's just a louder muffler. That's only good for a few horsepower.



It's worth it to do the mods for the sound, and afew horsepower, but not an intake from those companies.

Thanks bro !!

I just answered him back...nothing too violent...just my own experience.
Like cklinh just said...in the worst case...it still a step forward in performance...we are so limited. I think that guy hammered CP-e without know much about it. At least if he would have some proof...something.
