BTW, after valve springs, Shawn's car held a flat HP curve without the drop. So did BlackZ28Turbo's car, and many others who won't post on this board, and so will the Formula. Exactly what will you do when I change them this week and post the flatter graph? Just what you always do I'm sure...ignore it.

I could ask the same question off all 3 of you.

Again, you guys have managed to turn a useful thread into a Mightymouse and RICE ETR vs Rob pissing match.

MYTURBO, if you wanna start another thread to continue the discussion, please do.

Take the **** fight to email or PM, i'm sick of reading it.

Mine is approx 10in long before it attaches to the wastegate, and now actually goes back 5ft 10in (from the gate) before merging back into the exhaust system.
I still think this is the proper solution make a few phone calls.
