If I go, I'll be without car.

And no, there is no E85 stations out that way. Fill up in Wexford before coming. They do have Race Gas on site.

The dent gives it character. Plus it could always be worse. You could have an evo8 bumper for instance.

dunno if any of you guys caught this thread......but i know some have been looking for a quieter muffler and so far this has potential.

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...y-muffler.html

I am half tempted to try one just because I hate the round magnaflow that came on my cat-back, this is much more stock looking and appeasing to me...Hopefully someone will get some dyno testing to see if the power band is hurt anywhere - if not this is a winner for those who are looking to quiet an exhaust down

Let me know if you do. I want to see what the difference is. I'm driving out to Gettysburg at the end of the month and I'm NOT really looking forward to it.

I drove my car down to Miami overnight with the Greddy Ti with no silencer. It was not a pleasurable experience. The ARC is a little quieter, but I am still searching for something to take it down another notch.

Head had lifted on the old setup at 34 psi on a 35r after almost two seasons. After the new headgasket and stronger headstuds we put the car back together but this time used an hta86. That extra boost and extra hp has nothing to do with being a ****ing Houdini, the extra power comes from a significantly different turbo

Not worth it bud. I had mine car on their dyno and it was reading 7whp lower than Buschurs.

That's because when they tune their cars they usually don't expect some douchey conspiracy theorist to pop up with all kinds of absurd accusations

I didn't know every car ever tuned there needs video confirmation, a dyno sheet, and a test ride by you dan l. I'll alert the tuners in the area of your decree
