For kicks I made a video of the car driveby's and a burnout with the current system.
So far only the burnout is uploaded, but I will do the rest later.

Enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_PcZjeN3nA

My neighbor was actually filming
I don't do it a lot, and this was today, during the day, noone around.
I was at home waiting for a delivery, and my buddy is a pilot, so he is on call.

I remember we did that out front of DMP's house and his bitchy neighbor called the association head and complained. Too fun

I don't know where you live, but there are fairly young folks around here, and I know them well. There lived through me doing nitrous, building the first turbo and revving it with no muffler at all...

Gonna have to sell it to the highest bidder :-P


Don't worry, unless you decide to go custom, when ready, I will take the orders, and start making them in a batch.
so whoever is first, will be first.

By the way i spoke with a local performance shop yesterday, about him wanting to participate in making the systems, and the guy was glad to offer his help, and welding expertise. And I saw his work. The guy makes cleanest and nicest welds I ever saw. Aluminum, or steel.

Well, I am not exactly ready yet, myself. ...don't want to make you pay for my mistakes. I aim to have the prototype on my car by spring time, and the kit shortly after sometime. Until then, please be patient.

You are always welcome to take a drive over to my place, and take a ride in my car. That should increase your appetite some

I won't be dynoing the old system, but the new one yes. There will definitely be a dyno.

Personally though I never understood peoples fascination with the dyno results.
it is pretty much the same everywhere (based on manifold pressure, intake charge temp and AF ratio). Nevertheless, it is a part of the marketing strategy.

I agree to a certain extent . However it is the only real comparitive tool we have apart from 1/4 mile runs etc and no-one really does that stuff around here ...

Yeah. A Dyno is like the SAT for car mods. It's not necessarily a good measurement but it's the only yardstick we have.
