I'll have to check the video when I'm on a better computer.

Those turbines are really going to look good on there.

Sounds really good too. With that factory tu-tone paint, its an awsome sleeper.

Sounds pretty decent...idle is a bit on the high side...but I'm sure you'd rather have that then the dreaded surge...do you have an exhaust leak or just no exhaust on the car?  Exhaust just didn't quite sound right.

theres probably some fine tuning in the exhaust side... that needs to be done. its all there lers and all

yeah i dont like the surge, but capping the EGR fixed that a wee bit :D
