Talking got my downpipe :))

daaaaammm my car is so much frieking faster...

I noticed the power is killer now from 5-7 k and top end screams.... )

Im still barely hitting 10 psi in 4th,5th gear, so fuel isnt an issue, im still running fairly rich...booya...im happy.

The only question is, if I rev it up to 7 g's..i get a little blueish black smoke...not alot, but maybe its because I have no cats left........

But of course, now I get flames!!!!

All in All...good deal....

I netted a best of 14.6@95 before, first time at track, so with more experience and with my dp, I bet Ill be able to hit 13's next time at the track....

The DP was one of my favorite upgrades, the power gains are so noticeable, plus the FLAMES!!!

Flames? Guess you also have a straight pipe as well (or is the extra gas from running rich making it through the cat ??)

Watch that air/fuel gague though. 10PSI is a lot for an OEM setup and I'd hate her to run lean and pop.

Good like hitting your 13s! You should be able to do it with a little practice to lower your 60' times.

See, I didn't know all that! You need to keep us updated? I thought you had just bought a new one!

Glad to see you fixed it up! Ya know, we're trying to get a meet together on the 23rd! You should try and make it up!

Later,
Brad

Yeah, don't be such a stranger. Try to make the drive on the 23rd. I'll be installing my 3" RS*R frontpipe and my new 3" Corksport SS cat-back tomorrow (Saturday) morning.
