Great so far, though no one ever seems to want to play.

Welcome to the boosted Z life. No one takes the Z car seriously till they get their ass handed to them.

There have been a good number of American muscle cars who roll up, look for a second but then slow back down...was it something I did?

Maybe it's not worth the gas for those 'American Muscle Cars'

You have to look over at them and then quickly snap your head forward like you're scared. It's all part of the act.

Haha, I understand. I hope we can hear/see more of the kit in action soon!

I hate to beat a dead horse here, but have your impressions on FI's LTH changed since the SC installation? I might have overlooked it, but I wasn't sure if a conclusion was made.

On the F.I. long tube headers:
-I am very happy with how things are, we are running around 5.5-6.0PSI and making great numbers (should be on a dyno jet later this week for an accurate run). With the stage 1 SC setup it might be a bit much in terms of flow, since people also seem to want to see 8.0PSI and the top numbers. Though for me that was not the plan, it was to test both items and to build for the future of a larger kit (stage 2 or 3 maybe). Now I have been very happy with the results so far, and if you can look past that we are making less boost you will see we are making good HP/TQ.

With the F.I. exhaust on order I am curios how it will change things versus the Berk.
It will be a bit more free flowing with a straighter design, but will it cause any loss in PSI though?

Given that you have LTH's, any substantial drop in boost pressure has likely already occured.

That is what I figure, a slightly more open exhaust will not alter much other than sound mostly.
