thats a good amount of power. with all the noise that kit makes with 380-390 should be a fun car to drive. i got to drive around kamus car a few times and i just love the symphony of noise that came from the car. if only turbo could make that kind of noise. i like that sense of "im driving an airplane"

Kamu told me my car was louder than his and sounded sick, before I even got the car back. Yeah, car is loud as hell with the strup headers and tiket test pipes combined with the NI invidia...I'm even thinking of resonated test pipes to dampen the noise, my car does sound sweet...but I have to get used to the loudness. Even cops at the military gates told me that it sounded like an airplane. Either that or just get used to it.

that was with the 6psi pulley. Kamu has already given me one of the 9psi pulley, he's looking for the other. If I had them at the time of the tune sonics would have installed then tuned but thats okay....the reflash supports the 9psi pulley(thanks to technosquare) I have to do is get the pulleys, another tune and upgrade fuel system. Right now, car runs great! I'm TDY now but be back this weekend.
