Steve did you say 215 at the wheels. Wouldn't that be an addition of 40 hp? Did I miss something? I see the smiley face so you must joking. I hope you get 10 hp out of it.

Yeah, I was joking about that... Even saying the words "header" get at least a 15 hp increase, due to the fact that the velocity of the word coming out of your mouth hitting the front windsheild will in turn push the frame of the car faster during acceleration... Kinda like a sailboat... And the louder you say it... OH!! each decible increase is a Hp increase... HAHAHA! I am hoping for 10hp low end... hoping... And being able to rev harder and faster... A.Van: Total cast of my setup including mufflers and all that... $800... Now, that is including piping, mufflers, two High flow cats, flex piping, and install... You could just get all the stuff and torch it on yourself and it would drop the price about $400...  But that means, you have to bend and get the piping too... I highly doubt this will get off the ground, since not to many people want to pay that type of money... But you never know...

The MSDS is half done... I won't get it until tomorrow... That and also two pins or the front control arms needs replacing, and the ES insert needs to be installed... More money to fix some problems, but mind as well do it since it is up in the air...

OK, it's finally DONE!! About $370 for the install, but that is also including the install of the ES inserts and install of some broken suspension pieces up front, including parts... Not bad... I'll be happy to get rid of WorldTour's car now... What a tank!! Hehe...

HAHA!! Got it and LOVE IT! Just needs to be dry so I can really test it out... No longer does the secondaries seem sooo pronounced, it's all one smooth increase... I wanna say my guess at the dyno will be 185fwhp... but we'll see... And no ES inserts were installed!! A little peeved, but an honest mistake... Wasn't written on the order, so the tech didn't know... Oh well.

$800 isn't too bad for all the parts...there's no way I could do the install though
