That's seriously very nice Rich. I love how your car as evolved! That is probably the nicest exhaust I've heard yet on an FD.

So are you glad you went single or do you miss the BNR twins you had? How is the turbo response compared to the BNR's?

I was running my BNRs non-seq, which in retrospect was a mistake for my goals. It didn't bother me for a few years, but I started to miss the low end. It's hard to say, but my current setup sees full boost about 500 rpms sooner than my old setup given similar weather conditions. Keep in mind I changed more than just turbo setups----I changed my fuel system and intercooler, and upgraded my LIM and entire exhaust system. I also dropped about $5000, this after selling off all my old parts.

Maurice, we definitely need to go for a ride sometime soon. I still want you to polish those parts, but then the car wouldn't be driveable, so I'm kinda torn

Somehow I knew you'd have something nice to say, you always do Dave. What's the best time you've run in your FD ?

I was able to get it to the track in 2003. My first run I went 12.3@115mph. Non sequential twins 15 psi pump gas and nitto drag radials. I have been taking since then to get back.
I wasnt busting on your ride but i have a hard time getting excited over some pulls on the street. Post some real videos. Do it!
