Default Longtubes Installed (video)

Kooks got installed today. I absolutely love them. I believe this setup is the best for our cars. It actually smoothed out the raspyness that comes with having SLP LM1's. It Eliminated a lot of the drone on the highway. Don't get me wrong now though, when you are WOT, or in powerband the car sounds absolutely ridiculous. I would tell anyone to go with this setup. I will get some videos up tomorrow for you guys! They are expensive, but I think they are worth the money.

Here's a quick vid. It was raining out, so i'll make a better one during the week. PS: she was cold

I can think of only 3 things left to do, all in the intake....90 mm MAF, Accufab TB, and an intake spacer. Followed by a dyno tune if she's running too lean. I'm always on a budget so nothing gets done fast. Very satisfied with her as she sits. Post them dyno results when you get them.

Cams, Heads? I'm going to look into that intake spacer from roy. I feel you man, I try to put money aside to mod it, as I'm still making payments on the car too. I got an appt for a dyno tune April 27th. That's how busy this guys shop is. He's one of the best in the country. Teamjdm if you ever heard of them. hopefully one day we can get to the same track on something man.

Consistent 11.8s and 9s w/o heads & cams will do me just fine. Good to hear you have a top-notch place for a dyno. Every bit as important as knowing a good mechanic.

Yeh same here on heads/cams.....I think we have the same goal, which is 11.99 NA.....Anyways that mine. Your not to far off man, A dyno tune would def put you there. Im a little further away but, I'm confident I'll get there.
