Definitely something we're working on. The exhaust flow was greater than expected - IMO, not a bad thing . We'll first inspect and make adjustments to the wastages/wg brackets. Then, if necessary, swap out for larger flapper valves.

Thats what I figured but didnt want to assume fair enough. Good answer, Im impressed with how fast the car was done and the kit completed. Nice job guys...

Hmm, pulled over for "dumping the clutch and spinning tires"- Was already in motion and just punched it when an undercover cop was in the lane next to me getting on the highway. He made a dead stop and so did I but he waited till I moved christmas lights (sorry no ninja shots) real nice gay gave me compliments on the car and got off with a warning. "Very noticeable car you have there, long time until I retire so I better not see you doing it again ) Yes officer! All on rt 40 Golden mile Frederick, md. Good times. Clint you have a text message!!!

Also just a suggestion but move this thread to shop build where it will get a lot more view by other members. Not to many people browse the region threads like the do the forced induction shop builds. Good job too AAM, also thanks to them for a speedy shipment and all their tech help with the fuel return.

well he wants to see if the kit produces power like a greddy (reference to my teaser pic of intercooler) so why run your mouth and not run the car?
