Got retuned at Church's on Saturday with the new round of mods including the 2.87 pulley and UpRev MAF. Car feels very responsive, I'm loving the torque.
420.6/358.5 @ 9lbs of boost.

Quick question on your Art pipes. Have you had any issue with your CEL? My HFC's are blown and I need to replaced them with new ones and I'm thinking about the ART's. Any info would be appriciated, thanks.
And before anyone flames.. I'm doing research as we speak.

I have ART and no issues w/ CEL at all. I have been reading about rear O2 sensors dropping gas mileage some though - due to their use in extended drives at low throttle position (more than 10+ miles at a time at same speed)
Silencer - how is the fuel consumption?

Any test pipe will smell. If your tune runs rich, it'll smell stronger. That said, I've been behind, in front of, beside patrol cars and motorcycle cops at a light, and have never been pulled over. Obviously I rev it as little as possible.
Its actually about the same distance. Will probably take longer now due to lower speed limits along the route.
I was there in 00-03 with 3/4.
Post up some vids the next time you guys go!

Thanks Jairen I'd like to see too, but with all the tracks closing up here, it's gonna be hard. 
I think I have a couple on my phone, but I'd have to upload them after work.
