Re: DIM SUM MEET
Looks like a Borla exhaust. By the way, you guys are welcome to use my house for the next team meeting. We can all chat outside by the pool. Let me know, I am in Arcadia off the 210.

Re: DIM SUM MEET
That was a nice gathering and I look forward to our first meet as a team.
Rashman1450, that was my coupe in the picture, with a Borla cat back.
Nimnix, we have two superchargers in the group so far. Rashman has the Vortech centrifugal and I have the ATI centrifugal. The Vortech has an interesting high pitched whistle at idle that the ATI does not, but the Vortech sounds quieter overall than the ATI. They both make pretty much the same power when intercooled.
The installation of both types of unit takes much longer than the manufacturers suggest. They say 8-10 hours, but you should figure 20+. There is a lot of tuning and such associated with it. Rashman can give you the details of who did his install. I got my unit through LA Performance and they subbed out the install to Jim Hennessy, a corvette tech. He did a great job for me, but I am not sure if he wants to wrassle any more of them after his experience with it. I can check with him if you would like. He is a jet engine mechanic so from the tech side this was no problem for him. LAPerf has a new shop with a dyno and showroom and they now have a different mechanic and he is installing an ATI for another friend of mine, so when that is done I will check with him and see how it worked out, so that is another option. Finally, yet another gent down in Orange County has put one on his car with a performance shop down there, and if that is a better location I can get that contact for you. Just let me know. (I am going to be on the east coast next week, so it might be a few days before I can get back to you again.)
Best regards, Ed.
