Wow, nice numbers! Goes to show that 2.95" is not restrictive! Do you still the neck down on it?

Sweet.

I guess the neck-down isn't much of a restriction after all. What are you using for a downpipe and test pipe? I assume you got 3" for both.

Yeah, I got the 30th anniversary edition. It necks down at the cat. Did you have yours modified? The neck-down is very short. You have to look closely to see it.

I'm running the HKS Carbon Ti, and I can't complain about it. I'm happy with the fit, finish, and sound. For HP increase #s, I have no idea, my car has never been dyno'd. I'm happy with it though.
