Thanks for the props Nate! The car did turn out great. A perfect Michigan street car. I ended up adding a Borla 3.5" XR1 race muffler. That was the key to it all. It still has a grumpy sounding idle, but driving down the road is so much more pleasant. You can talk on the phone and wax a riced out Civic, or leave a 08 R1 behind. (ask me how I know this! ), but the wide open sounds awesome, it is pure turbo jet engine!

We went with a Big Stuff 3 stand alone, tuned in speed density.
It started raining literally 45 minutes before Nate got here to pick up the car, we were going to go out and finish dialing in the trans shift points, but it was a no go. The BS3 auto controller leaves a little to be desired in my opinion.

For ***** and giggles we stopped by a dyno shootout, we had no plans to hit the rollers, and we didn't have the laptop. It would not stay in third gear, and would down shift to second every time. It still put down just under 500 to the wheels in second gear, and he aborted at 4500 rpm. My butt dyno puts it around 680-700 rwhp right now at 12.5 psi.
When we put some good heads on it, we should be able to see what the little 76 billet can do.
From the dyno...

you probably have to ask Houston for clearance before you can drive it.
