Like I said before, If this falls flat on its face, Ill take my losses and save the 3'' for mybe turbo set-up coming this Tax-return season

even mid range looks really nice.

Guys/gals - While you are discussing exhausts, between the T1r 63mm v2 slanted and the T1r power 70mm (non-slanted), which one would you recommend?

well boys i am taking a breift reprieve from the HP wars and doing a appearnce change. my Amuse died a unexpected death, spawning a spart in me to spice up the look. i figure i might as well add some style to back up my power.
new lip, among other subtle changes, and LIGHTER wheels..........

Yea, what's the deal with that header? Is it gonna work? Is it going to be produced? Can I add it to my header thread?? 
Going to 2nrwerks today boys. Got an appointment with the dyno at 1pm. I've been re-tuning the car myself thru the part throttle settings while driving around, and something I've noticed, is that with the added airflow, I'm able to add buttloads of timing everywhere, and still not knock...so we're gonna advance the timing as much as we can on the dyno, and then re-trim the AFR's closer to 13.8...Hoping to pick up a few extra ponies thru the entire power band....Especially up at peak. I'd really like to see some higher numbers out of this setup...I'm still sceptical that my exhaust is holding me back THAT much...
Wish me luck!
