Nice numbers, cant wait to see some track times.

How do you like the probe pistons? How hard were they to balance? Ive heard mixed opinions on them but may be buying a set for my build.

I kinda like the probe pistons, they werent all that bad. They are -12.8 is the only bad thing but I was scared of the compression getting too high for pump gas. I like where its at 11.3:1. I know I coulda went alot more but i'm satisfied. I cant wait to get it to the track too!

Thanks Colin! They are some pretty good guys at SRE!
Thanks Cooldude!

Congrats on your build. I enjoy seeing a local member post up his build. Friday is the last test and tune at Great Bend if you're interested.

SICKNESS! sounds like what zeus would drive lol that thing looks cherry too! I'm surprised by how much it picked up w/ the cut out open, behind the cut out is the rest of your exhaust stock besides for the borla? who did the mail order tune btw?

oyeah- that camera man needs a lesson on how to film races

Sounds similar to my Borla 40474 which flows very well, which one do you have? I only lose like 1 MPH with the cutout closed through the muffler. Good luck at the track.

I'm not exactly sure which one it is off hand. I bought it so long ago I forgot as it was one of my first mods in high school
