Woot. Do you still have to pay the premium membership fees annually? I know you are on here so much that you would gladly pay anyway

I don't think I do. But you're right, I have paid them the last two years. The anything goes section is well worth the money! (as you well know)

I took all my motor parts down to UMS Tuning last week. Tony should be sending my motor out to the machine shop this week or next.

It has started!!!

Yeah this is going to be fun!

After some research and talking to Charles (CJM) I found out the sedan may run into fuel starvation issues faster than the coupe or Z due to differences in the pump housing design. With any luck it will be enough for now but I may have to do a custom twin-pump setup or get a big boy pump and make a surge tank system. Only time will tell.

As for the custom dual 3" exhaust, my friend is moving into a new shop and running a little behind. It looks like we will be doing it early Fed. I have not started messing with the fuel evap system to see if we can remove (or move) it to make room and bring it out on the other side. If we can make it work he does still want to make these in 2.5” for the N/A and mild boosted sedans. We have to do my car and figure out if he can make a kit to sell first. The big issues are the fuel evap and hangers for the other side. With any luck we will be able to make a kit that can be installed without any welding using custom brackets which bolt into oem spots. More info to come on that one in a month or so.

UMS' new shop is ~40 miles from my house but I will try and go down to check things out before they put it all back together. They have a spare VQ long block they are using so my car won't stay down there until it's ready for the final parts.

Dual 3, WOW. Im going to try using a single 3" E-Cutout dump off of the Y. I want to keep the sound low when I'm just cruising around. Maybe dual 3" E-Cutout dumps?

The dual 2.25" on the borla has been enough to get into the low 400's on my car but I doubt it will flow much more. This will help a lot.

I don't think I've ever posted pics of my trunk.

It's nothing great but is clean and still has room, even with my 19" coupe wheel for a spare in there!

Wow, I didn't know you had the matching sub box. I remember a lot of people were asking about getting one for the other side.
Did you get 1080 to build the other one?

On a side note, you have carpet on the top of your trunk (under parcel shelf). I don't Was it only the 03-04, or is it part of the premium pkg?

I gave up and made a box for the other side myself. Wicked CAS makes one now but it only fits sedans with a full size spare and the spacer.

I think you had to have bose to get the carpet part. I took it off a loaner I had from the dealer.
