That's rediculous sounding! The sound that bellows out of the pipes at first start up is insane. After destroying my tires, I would burn out my starter motor just starting my car up, turning it off, starting it up, turning it off, starting it up.... you get the point. Can't wait to see the new track times.

Thanks for the kind words guys. It was a hell of a job fabricating them, there wasn't much room for 1 7/8" primaries, but definitely worth it in the end.

Watch? You're more than welcome to drive either of our cars.

Nice! I can only imagine how loud it would be without the resonator and with aftermarket mufflers. Almost sounds the way my Z28 did with a Borla system on it. Can wait to see how full length headers for the ISF turn out.

Crap, is it this Sunday??? Hmmm Let me see what I can work out - need to check with the other half (no bashing guys, yes I am married and I gotta run this stuff by her cause she always ends up committing me to something - And yeah I know it's not a two-way street cause she never checks with me, but it's the price I gotta pay) Damn, and Andy's offer just sweetens the pot, just might be worth risking divorse over. I'll let you know!

Sorry man, just had to. You opened that door too wide.

Dear Santa,

I have been a good boy this year and really want this. I've help
3 old ladies across the street, have not raced any Neon SRT's eventhough
they keep sounding off their blowoff valves at me, and have not exceeded
30 mph over the speed limit in 2 months!

Good job guys!

You have teenage "wanna-ricers" driving Neons in your town too? I thought it was only here in Virginia. This is becoming an epidemic..........something has to be done

On the takeoff vid you hear a slight bog in 2nd gear due to the MTs spinning like mad off the line. The car shifted at the correct shift point but the tires were spinning.

Theses are headers, the JoeZ exhaust mount right into them.
