    Pretty tame sounding really considering it is a 248/254 629/622 113 bumpstick. And that is true duals. I like it that way. Just cruising around town I have had some people think it has nothing more than a catback.
    Cutouts open it is MUCH different.

    I think I'm going with the cam Brian is about to put in. Maybe then I can get some decent numbers at the track for my slow ride.

    I know the feeling, everytime you put a major mod in is like expecting a baby.

    btw you should have seen me when i was getting my 240sx redone.. i got sooo much done at one time when i got it back it was a whole new car... took them about 3 months which was ridiculous but had a full engine swap, turbo, new transmission, sooooo many other goodies, rewired the whole damn car and all that so it took them forever and i went and visited it to see the progress every weekend... like an hour trip each way

    I can't say that ever happened to me. Although when I was getting close I was excited. Nice to have all that work pay off.

    Hell....the car sat like this for weeks.

    think of it in increments of $4k. depending on if you do the labor or not it could vary. that's what I did.

    tires, suspension (springs + shocks), handling/traction (SFCs, tq arm, adj panhard), pulley = 4k

    full exhaust, Fast 90/90, gears, tune= 4k

    heads, cam, stall, tranny cooler, tune = 4k

    tranny build up, rearend bolt, and miscellaneous = 4k

    in my case my increments were more like $5k since I bought some of the better brands that yield above average gains.
