I have the GReddy EVO2 exhaust which won't mate up to this systems downpipe. I'm going to have to have a shop do some fabrication and welding work during install to make this fit. I hope it doesn't prove to be too much of a pain in the backside. I'd still love a ride in your car if we can work it out, but I'll soon be joining you in the boost club. Congrats on the car. I heard there was so much smoke in the shop when they first started it up....LOL. Glad to hear it's running. Do you have plans to get it on a dyno to check A/F and power? Jeff indicated that it might be running rich. If it is, it'll be interesting to see what the corrective action to that is.....ECU adjustment by Turbonetics maybe?
