We might be able to have the car on the DYNO at the end of the week and I should be able to get some 'charts' shortly thereafter. We are on a major crunch timeframe to get the car completed and back to Seattle for the final modifications and then down to SEMA so we may have to do all the DYNO work after SEMA. FMU built the headers as well. I'm not a big fan on disclosing my personal finances too specifically so I'll just say it wasn't cheap! I'd suggest contacting FMU directly for pricing on this 'one-off custom build,' or any system you might be interested in.

Yellow calipers were a MUST, good call! Now I just need to get the Brembo logos on them and they'll be good to go.

Looks good. It looks like you crossed over on the primaries into the collectors on two cylinders. Would like to see this thing when you are done.

I was curious what those were for. A real rear diffuser panel I would assume.
