    It's somewhat small at the moment, the number of aftermarket exhausts for the 3.3. It'd be nice to have a list, maintained. This is probably more of a US thing or so, because in Switzerland we're regulated to death with the legal options.

    Atm I only know of:

    - SEMA Borla ... with no idea if this going official?
    - SEMA AMG Exhaust. A gag?
    - Bastuck. Seems not to have that much roar.
    - "Updated thing from Kia". Apparently there's a "sport" exhaust or so mething now. What I saw doesn't sound like much and is hideously expensive.
    - JUN B.L. Korean thing I think, where I have no idea if this makes it to Europe myself.

    My favorite is the Borla .. that thing roars. But it would have to have a "silent" option or simply behave in normal driving if you don't hit the pedal much. Nothing gets on my nerves more, than a sport/performance exhaust, that constantly drones and annoys on long voyages.

          Anyone else have oil leaking from this location?

          Went to do an oil change today, and notice oil dripping on the steering rack motor. seems to be either coming out of the top of the oil filter housing near the crank and or from where the oil cooler attaches to the filter housing.

          Anyone else have this issue?

          Car is a 2022 GT2 with 72,000 miles

              I just got a 2018 gt2 with the 3.3tt and it’s awd. I got the car with a blown motor and I’m now in the market for a motor lol. When I was looking I found that the awd motors are a lot harder to find and cost about 2k more. From my understanding the long blocks are the same. So in that case can I just buy a motor that came out of a rwd and put it in my awd without modifications? Thanks in advance!

                    Hi all, I’m wondering if it’s possible to replace the alternator on a stinger/g70 3.3 at home in my garage with my basic tools. Yesterday I had an issue of a dead battery and after recharging and having autozone test my battery we determined that my battery is healthy. And I used the alternator test function on my battery charger and it said my alternator was bad. I can’t find anything on the internet depicting the process of changing an alternator on these cars. I read on a forum/Reddit post someone saying the engine had to come out for the alternator… and a friend of mine who works at a auto shop said he would have to remove the front subframe and quoted me $1100 for the job.

                    I’m just wondering if anyone has experience and insight with this. I’m really hoping it’s possible for me to just remove the passenger side intake and some other parts in the area and replace it myself.
