The last dyno was 251hp, but I couldn't get tq numbers. On another dyno, I had 221tq (before a few current mods). As for 1/4 mile, I personally have never run it. I think that DavidZ told me he got a 13.7 or 9 or something like that with slicks. I am in the stage of reducing a lot of weight off of the car, and swapping to a different set of headers. Then I just need to get the emanage going.

Well I finally got my exhaust. "ahhhhhh"<-sighing :p The gains are not drastic but noticable,I am guessing about 10 ponnies. There is a little extra power in the upper rrrrrrr's. The sound produced is very pleasing, it's not ricey, however its no stang either. Another thing I found is there is no rasp or drone, Thank God. To sum it up its a tunned exhaust sound, with anice gain
