You'll need to order mandrel bends if you want good ones. Most shops don't keep them in stock.

Surely you can get into something close to home if you're wanting to get into a racing scene. Try looking for a local racing board and meeting some people on there.

Stock times for these cars are about 14.3 @ 97. Exhaust and tune only I'm running a 13.7 @102.

Without a tune would removing the cat cause the SES light to come on? Can you still buy O2 sims?
