I'll try to get something tonight but it will depend on how late I have to work. I can get some good driveby ones later when my wife can film for me.


My tune is way off now so I have to take it easy on the car until the motor goes in.

Congrats Tim on your latest and greatest mod. But I'm sure in your case this is still the beginning of what's to come..

If you have chance post up some daytime shots of the dual exhaust, maybe a few from a distance. From the nighttime/garage pics it's kinda hard to see the full potential of the exhaust.

Are you lean up top now? I've heard that the 3" downpipes allow the exhaust gases to leaves the turbine housings so much more efficiently that it you end up leaning out......but that's a good thing. It means your engine is moving more air!!!! add more fuel!!!! make more power!!!!

I have been very gentle with it so far.

The plan is to go play around later this week and see if I can get my tune in check. It's going to be at least a few weeks before the new motor goes in to I need to keep it running! My problem is that I only have RC 440's so I'm about out of fuel as-is. For now my EBC is off so I'm at wastegate pressure (5.5psi) and thinks seem good (A/F ~ 11.2 @ WOT) but I have not gone into the high rpms much at all.

I'll be in touch later this week to let you know how the temp tune went.
