Default new track times are in.

Hit this on my second run. Track was rough and I spun a lot. On some bald pirelli stockers. I know she has more in her. Ls1 manifold catless downpipe. Stock cat back with flowmasters welded on tuned by vince at trifecta tuning.

Next up is 3 inch exhaust, headers, rocker arms, 4in maf, 90mm throttle body, and milled heads in that order. Hoping to see deep 12s this summer. I need some radials to. Anyone know how much power the stock catback is good for and is there any gains by going 3 inch to dual 2.5s?

I'd skip the rockers and just cam it when you do the heads.

Also good time and mph for the mods.

How many times do we have to battle this out?
FLOWMASTERS TIL I DIE BITCHES!!! LOL
I'm fabbing a 3 inch cat back over the next few days. What's the deepest non raspy muffler you've heard on these cars. Ie; closest sound to flows without the performance loss

LOL!

You could throw Borlas on it. I happen to think Borla makes our motors sound like something you'd find in a speed boat, but a lot of people like that sound. To my ear, it's a bit deeper than Flowmaster, but without the "hollow" sound.

O/T, but finally got the 944 back running (runs high 15s but it's RWD and fantastic), and I got a supposed 12 sec sprayed CRX (Gutted of course, projected weight 1700 lbs), we just have to finish building it. So between the two I have 8 cylinders again.

I miss that car more and more every day.

I used a long 18" magnaflow 3" straight through muffler, it's nice and quiet by most standards till you romp on it.

All in all I have 800 in the car. I got the complete intake swap for 300 tune for 300 downpipe for 100 and mufflers for 100 so in happy with the results. I was in some bald tires...on radials I could have gotten 13.3 or maybe better.
