I'm about to start my build on a 00' FRC, L33 swapped with a Borg 74mm. I'll be using this thread as a reference. I like loud cars. I'm running kooks and bullets now with no cats. How similar is that to running a side dump? louder quieter?

People have told me a side dump will be completely obnoxious and unbearable to drive.

Without a doubt quieter though... #TurboProblems

Ok so got it tuned yesterday... honestly disappointed tho. The car DID NOT like 91 pump gas... even with a little meth. It made decent power but wouldn't take anymore boost or timing due to detonation. Tuner said my CR is too high for pump gas.

Made 627whp and 587 tq... going back in a few weeks for an e85 tune.
