NEW Motordyne Exhaust, Titanium and Dual Setups!
Other breather mods I have are: stillen z-tube, k&n drop-in filter, md 5/16th iso-thermal spacer, and f.i. hfc's. An Osiris tune is up next shortly after I get a new intake.
I gotta find someone to help me record some driving vids, and find an empty road lol.

Silencer_0, i'm predicting that you'll love the osiris tune, good luck with that.
Tony, always good to see that you have good data handy with you. Concerning the dyno you have above, can you tell me what the other three testing temperatures were? On the issue of retarding timing based on intake temps, do you know what the intervals are? I know for engine temp it starts to take effect at 200F and the intervals are -1 on timing for every 5F. BTW, i remember you were working on an intake project a while back (prolly the reason why you have this graph), is that still alive?

There are 5 test points from 50'F to 120'F in approximately 20'F intervals.
The intake project is on pause for now because if I do it, I really want to do something that will make a difference. And this requires a really significant R&D project to do it.
I need to get a couple other projects out first.
Just crating that test data in the plot above was a lot more complicated and costly than it first may seem. And that was nothing compared to what it will take to recreate thoes results on the road.
The good news is... its possible with time, $$$ and R&D.

Thanks for the info as always. Just read over at my350z that you have the rolled 4.5 tips on the way, is that going to be around the same time frame as your highly anticipated Test Pipes? Can you let me know how much both are? Also are the new tips longer then the old ones?
i just switched out my Resonator for a STRAIGHT PIPE on my Shockwave Dual and i LOVE IT.
although it is not a huge sound difference it is quite noticeable. the biggest difference in sound would have to be at WOT. the Extra Exotic Growl it emits is just heaven.
the versatility of this system is quite impressive. depending on your style and application you can switch out and manipulate it to your liking. switching out the exhaust components (resonator, straight pipe, or cat) is easy and refreshing. its like having a new exhaust everytime you change out a component.
if i wanted to get Test Pipes i Could still have a cat to deal with emissions! how cool is that?
BTW.... i have a resonator for sale if anyone interested. LOL.

I'm sure those xo2 guys would be interested in the 4".
