I finally changed out the entire exhaust system. Toda header, Amuse Ti dual exhaust and testpipe. Thanks to team Spugen for the install. It took about 60 lbs off the car. The butt dyno says much improved. It winds-up noticeably faster in 4th gear now. It seems like the factory exhaust was holding me back with the Vortech & Alaniz head and all. This system should allow it to breath much better and I'll know more after I dyno next week at Church Automotive.
At idle (1500 rpm currently) it rumbles much like a Viper or Cobra. I cruised downtown HB and everyone stopped and turned to look so it must be a very loud rumble. Got several compliments from pedestrians. Between 2000 and 5000 rpm at partial throttle it is totally tame and about like stock. It might even be quieter than stock in this range at times. Go above 5000 rpm or give it full throttle and the singing just screams. It's so sweet. This will force me to drive easy as I'm sure it's a cop magnet now. -------------------- Dark Sideways It is better to make torque at high rpm than at low rpm when you can take advantage of gearing. 284.3 ft lbs of torque at 9400 rpm Current Dyno Playing with the big boys Joe ALANIZ is a thief

Pictures later today when the sun comes out. I'm going to the LAST Crystal Cove Meet tomorrow. Anyone else going? After this Saturday we have to drive to Monarch Bay, much further away for me. I may go back to the Donut Derelicts Saturday meet in Huntington Beach and I would think there will be more cars there with the change. |

Another local with a SC picked up 20 hp with the testpipe. I'm trying to get beyond 400hp while only pushing 7 lbs of boost.
