    Any chance of getting a wave file? How is it at idle, and how is the sound level below 4k rpm, when cruising?

    I figured that I would end up putting a resinator or two in...

    To bad you didn't do dyno runs vs 1/4 passes... According to a few "leading authorities" it should see a noticible drop in 1/4 mile times... or it may or may not make more "fools" power on the number sheet, but will allow a shorter acceleration time...

    FYI: You do not need to have a cat in SM class for autocrossing. This was just debated on the auto-x mailing list and the official word was that it isn't specified in the rules. You just have to have a valid registration, license plate and insurance.

    you shouldnt be scared, just be aware of what you are getting yourself into. i try to baby the car around cops, but even then its hard to keep it quiet. its really only obnoxiously loud at WOT.

    one guy on a club si run who was behind me said he could feel the noise from the exhaust. i dont know how much of this is contributed by the 2.5" header, or the cat, but all together make for one loud SOB.

    Yeah, I knew it would be the loudest exhaust I could get... and I kinda knew what I was getting into, but know i have to live with it.

    Actually I'm excited... should be done anytime.
