Need to get an alignment and tune it. Might have a dyno video up in the next couple of weeks.

There is a down pipe from the turbo to the v-band, then a second piece with a tip. Thats an exhaust where I come from!

It made 590 rwhp on 9 psi with the th400, and 9 inch.

Never got back on the dyno with more boost, and now im changin up the gear, and re stalling the converter, and then i will retune with more boost. Should be well into the 700's on the 76mm with the th400, and 9 inch that is pretty good. Should have some low 9's in it for sure.
