I'm personally a fan of loud but that is a VERY nice build. Nice 1/4 too. Keep us posted on the build as it all comes together.

Quite impressive; not just your project but also the wood I got from watching the vids...

I totally agree with everyone else: awesome, silent, stealthy, until they see nothing but your tail lights.

I am curious. If I may ask, what does your boost curve look like? Especially off the line?

On the Street its just about perfect. But with a 28" tire and a stock gear and stock converter its lazy off the line at the track. The new converter will be here this week. We are taking it back to the track Wednesday one more time on the stock converter to try and run a 9 before we swap it.

HUGE UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had to share



Got the car back on the dyno today since I was off work. Wanted to get it ready to try for a 9 on the stock converter. We knew the stock catback would be a restriction but didn't think it would be as much as it was! So we pulled off the catback after the x pipe and...


On 13 psi we just made 791 rwhp and 675 rwtq with some tuning left to smooth it all out. We were floored by the performance of this system to start but now the 3 of us are just speechless at this point. Later tonight I'll post a video and dyno graph.
