Jordo!

Thanks for your kind comments and input, it is sincerelly appreciated Sir!

The link is just laziness on my part. It's a lot easier to type "see link in my sig" than finding the link and C&Ping.

Nope, it was for a job, but the offer didn't appeal, so not relocating after all.

Did you find out if your moving this way?

Thanks so much your input is appreciated.

Hi I don't mean to bug you, but I wanted to get your opinion because I see you've tried many different set ups. I am currently running K&N drop in filters and an OEM Nismo Ehaust with no tune, what do think my gains if any might be? I still want to go aftermarket on exhaust but for $200 I wasn't going to say not to the Nismo Exhaust.

Thanks for the compliment.

Replacing the OEM cats with anything is the big one, making a tune either highly advisable or necessary -- the OEM cats are both the biggest bottleneck in the exhaust system (dramatic change in flow,...

Agreed. And, it's bolted to a proper sports car. But... the engine sounds like a tractor without a lot of careful consideration on the exhaust set-up... the only real drawback.

So basically like the "short tails" option but with resonators? Probably sounds pretty good -- nice! :tup:
