Thanks. We haven't run again. I have him on paper and mph as they sit right now but I think he has some plans.
He's at 614/602 rear wheel, 10.94 @ 127. Not sure on his weight.
I'm at 672/600 rear wheel, 10.71 @ 135 3730lbs. I have alot left in it once I get rid of the rich condition right off the hit. It's seriously screwing my 60's.

I bought everything from Summit. 3-bolt flanges, 3" & 4" u-bends, straight pipe, step clamps, and 3"-4" flowmaster merge collector. The bracket
I cut out of some 1/8" steel plate I had laying around.

Thanks bro.

Just gimmie the whole stats on how to make one like this!!!!!!!!!!!!


BTW, would this pass a sniffer test in Cali. not counting the visual crap.
Go here for some more info... http://www.cardomain.com/ride/485025/4

They are Carsound cats, cheap and effective. This setup passed the CA sniffer easily with a TR224/224, with some "help" on the visual of course. I don't know how long the turndowns are exactly, but there is a minimum of 16" between the exits and the O2 sensors, probably more. I'm selling the whole setup next week, local sale only though.

it looks like it would flow great with the cutouts open but with the cutouts closed it looks like it would cause a lot of turbulance. but that's cool cause when you need the power just crack it open lol

I'm sure it does cause some turbulance when their closed, but quite frankly, if I want power I'll open them anyways.

Check oout post # 17.

Will this thing scavenge at all? How is it's design compared to the flowmaster 2 into 1 pieces in this thread?

Looking for opinions and comments please.
