Re: What can Pypes do for you?
That Tach is just window dressing anyway.
I am Reeeeally impressed with your progress,by just this one addition. A good second quicker w/nearly 10 MPH added. Here are some of your other stock exhaust ET's I recorded at Gateway Intl. in 2004. 14.56 @97.06MPH 14.53 @96.26MPH 14.71 @96.04MPH

Re: What can Pypes do for you?
Yep! The seat of the pants feel is impressive, 3rd gear is a total rip
 The hard part is keeping the tires under it, whether it's on the street or the strip. I don't plan to make any additional changes, just the exhaust (sorry Sammy!). In fact, I'm going to replace my original rear leaf springs with the concourse versions that the SCW uses for their restorations. It's tempting to use the super stock springs, but.... like Atlas wheels - can't do it!

Re: What can Pypes do for you?
Thanks!!
Quite frankly, you couldn't wipe the smile off my face on Friday - I was hoping for 13.9x's, but a 13.50 almost made me put the car away while I was on top! I wheel-hopped a few more 13.8x's at 103+MPH, but I didn't care - that 13.50 made my year  Where's that pesky Franky at?

Tommy K and I walked over to ask how he ran and he immediately grabbed the time slip and showed us. He was like a kid on Christmas morning. Congrats M! Well deserved.  (However, after seeing what that mouse-motor did, ...........I left my rat in the trailer!  )

Re: What can Pypes do for you?
It's a thought. All this 'Day 2' talk has the wheels churnin though. I've been spotted digging in the far, dark corners of the garage. It's kinda scary back there........ but in a good way.
