I haven't done the 1/4 mile yet, but the laptop dyno showed my best 0-60 to be 4.4 and the avg is 4.7.
All of the new times have been with the larger rims. Wow, is it easier to launch now.

Correct. I wanted to do a before and after Dyno with just the racing cats, Y-pipe, and custom tubing before I put on the Eisenmann.
Hopefully, this will prove if there is any power to gain from the cats. I know others have tried, but the car now has 300 more miles on it, so it has had time to adjust. I hate street tuning, but it does feel more powerfull from 2k - redline.
After this dyno, I will install the Eisenmann and dyno again.

wow. i may like that only when i'm tracking my car.
Jerry. I like my supersprint muffler a lot. sounds like stock but deeper and louder. more exotic- can't really describe well. i have the single large oval tip- always liked that look- simple and uncluttered. it was $600something if i remember.

I'm trying to figure something out now. Hopefully, I can find a good aftermarket resonator and give that a try. I don't want to drive the car this way.
I paid about $1200 for Eisenmann, so if I can tone things down a bit, that would be the best bet.
Know a good brand resonator?

Yeah, but it's at home and by the time I get there, I won't have time to get it installed. Plus, the thing is huge and bulky and I'm not sure if it (or any) will reduce the sound to a more ear friendly level.
I might have them put the stock one back on for now unless they can find another solution.

Wow, that sounds like an old American 6 cylinder car/truck with an exhaust leak.
Maybe some American manufacturer of mufflers, that understands music tonal quality (sounds like an oxymoron)? The problem is, you need to fix the bad resonances and improve the good ones. I think an old Chevy exhaust engineer, could fix it. They worked wonders on the Firebird/Camaro & Corvette.

I got to pick the wife up in like 3 hours, so I have to figure something out.
My choices are:
1. Tell wifey I have an exhaust leak and that is why it sounds like poop.
2. Put the stock muffler back on.

We'll see after tomorrow. I have a new resonator coming in the AM that should help get the tone down.

A performance shop down the road said they have used these on many 600+ HP cars.
