Vert Is At MTI
I dropped off the vert at MTI this morning to have them install a set of Kooks headers, Kooks X-pipe, high flow cats, a Yank 3000 T/C and an update on my Dyno tune. They have promised to have the work completed by 4:00PM today. Not a bad turn for the work they are doing.
I can't wait to hear what the Kooks system will sound like through the Corsa Indy's. I suspect I may have a traction problem on street tires with the TC. Let the fun begin!!!!!

I love the sound of he Kooks with the Indy's. It has added a lower tone at low RPM's and a dogs of hell scream when you get on it. At cruise it still is tame which I enjoy.
The car feels totaly different with the TC and LT's. It is like I aded another 75-100 HP.
I only punched it hard once and that was at 40 MPH. The rear started to slide a little bit and when I looked in the rear view mirror I saw smoke. The most amazing thing was this was with the traction control on.
I am going to have to re-learn how to drive this thing and develop some respect for it. The crazy part is in the back of my mind I am thinking about my next mod which will either stealth 2 or a C2 cam. More to come!!!!
