Post by: G-dog on May 28, 2007, 08:19:54 AM: So does this mean all the smoke is going to shoot out the bottom this year? :P He He, it's a nice setup !That HUGE muffler will keep the cops away!

Post by: James Buchan on May 28, 2007, 08:47:46 AM: New turbo = no smoke... I killed the T3 last year so I upgraded to a TO4B.

Ya that 12\" resonator is good for 1-3db :) I put it on there for any techs at mission that want to see a \"muffler\"

Post by: G-dog on May 28, 2007, 09:14:07 AM: What time are you shooting for this year?
Title: Schwing!
Post by: James Buchan on May 28, 2007, 09:25:15 AM: Shooting for where I left off last year at 12.3 and seeing what else I can get. I think I will be limited until my new tranny is together with a better gear combo. The N/A box is way to short.

Darren deserves the credit, all I did was buy the material and tell him kinda how I wanted it.

Post by: James Buchan on May 28, 2007, 08:01:28 PM: Just picked her up from Darrens' and will post more pics.... I agree it is alot to support but selling crack is not the way to go. I am going to use my car for good and deliver pizza for a 11 second or it's free pizzeria....

You know that saying \"Load pipes save lives\" ya my car doesn't sound like no 4 banger anymore!

I've never hear of Load pipes but perhaps it's a coast thing.

Post by: James Buchan on May 29, 2007, 06:06:34 AM: Load HAHAH I meant LOUD!

Apron fits no problem, and Shane I have S/S bolts, Darren threw that hardware on to get me home (took a blast down 60th as there was a police cruiser on 58th, I guess my MBC is still set to kill as I hit 18lbs in 3rd...)

Now I need to fab up a decklid mounting system.
