Sorry I didn't get a chance to call you, I've been pretty busy. I'll try to give you a shout towards the weekend. BTW Nick, I think my search might have ended (more later).

Be cool in that thing Nick...not trying to tell you what to do, I just know that I have to constantly keep myself in check when out driving around. When I used to have time on the weekends to get out on the strip...I never felt like screwing around on the street...now that I don't have as much time...I find myself wanting to screw around more on the street...it is a bad habit...lost quite a few friends over the last 20 years....mostly on bikes though.

i ran car again at my spot and with nittos it turned 10.90 @ 133mph with only 13degrees and a/r in the high 9s low 10s!!!
the lame timing made car soft on the last 1/8th mile as first 1/8 was 104mph.
when i get the pump and a/r in line, i know ill pick up another 100 to 125 rwhp.
this car is soooo easy to drive with a/4 and 3:15 and 3000 stall.
i know that itll will turn 9's on radials and get average fuel of 15.6mpg
oh yeah, imagine how quite my car is with stock c5 mufflers and the turbos. when i ready to romp ill open the cutouts, so nice i really wish you guys could feel how smooth my sd tune is. hey lets all sd!!!

hmmmm...I didn't think I was board yet..if you can get them to me in 2 days I will throw them on and stick it on the dyno...otherwise I have to make another trip down to see Andy.
I need to see what these PT52s will do anyway.
But I am very interested in what you got brewing...maybe the new GT Turbos in a T4..that is even sweeter. Might have to wait until these wear out though. Best part is I can switch both of them out for some different ones in 1 hour.

I think that its pretty funny you are running stock C5 exhaust and then have cut outs...in a very cool kind of way.
Just make sure your cutouts aren't aimed at the rear leaf spring. I know a dude who had cutouts there and it heated up his leaf spring...it ended up causing the leaf spring to break.
