You guys didn't keep the clamps that come originally with the kit? We switched them out for the V-clamps and resolved the exhaust leaks. Please tell me he has a oil filter relocation kit. That turns into a bear when it comes time to change the oil with out one. Well at least on the AT7.

I really only heard it when the car was cold or after a nice run. After a while you kinda get used to the noise. After the test pipes went in I really didn't hear anything but a loud growl. Worst case you guys should contact STS and when it asks go to dial by name and talk with MARC. It's the only one. He will be able to help you with the tune if you run into any problems.

Hell if I wasn't on the road right now I would send you my tunes from STS. All they would have to do is change the ECU numbers. It would be a good start. The last run I did was by far the cleanest AFR numbers I was getting. I was usually down in the 9's and 10's.

Thanks for that! I'm hoping to pick the car up today!

Not yet, we actually have a problem with the exhaust piping hitting the dyno when strapped down. Weather was not nice at all here today so even road tuning was not possible. The client has Ark lowering springs on the vehicle.

That seems like some really wonky piping.

Ok Dave.... I just sent all the tunes they had sent me.
Please please please do not try to load these tunes onto his car. The ECU numbers will not match and it will screw up his car.
There should be one on there that gave me the 481hp....I think it was the 3-7-12 zipped file. Hope this helps you guys at least get a running start.
