As for my dyno numbers, I put down 407hp (I forget the torque, I can look it up if you really want it) on Jeremy's dyno. Before, with my 175mm setup and stock exhaust, I put down 449hp on Dynocomp's dyno here in the Phoenix area, which is the same type of dyno. I'm told I'd probably pull 100hp more if I re-dyno'd at Dynocomp, which would make sense considering hooleyboy's numbers and setup.
Of course, now I want an 82mm TB and airbox, but I just closed on another house and am doing some work on it so I have to behave right now...:crap:

Yep. The purpose of a group buy is to pool resources so a vendor can order a bulk amount of material at a reduced rate that he otherwise wouldn't and be able to pass those savings along to the customer. Getting in to a group buy two months after the fact would seem to negate this benefit.

Also unfair to those who paid upfront for the cheaper cost and who made the gb possible in the first place.

Chris has said he would do a few more sets however, (to clarify they will not be touched until all of the 10 sets are complete that were the initial G/B people.) just FYI. I dont mind as long as mine and the other 9 peoples are shipped out first.

Hey Mikey33, are you going to have Chris do the install as well? I am doing this for the entire system (I'm keeping the stock mufflers.) This way you save on shipping and why not have the guy who built them install them?
Who better afterall?
Question for you all here. Shoud I ask Jerry for a retune in advance of this complete system install or wait until afterwards? As I understand it the O2 sensors sometimes go out of wack if you don't tune the car properly right after install?
Any advice is welcome here!
Thanks.
Alex
