Lightbulb Hows it going?

Sorry about the situation you're in, have you got anything figured out yet? I was just looking at picking up a set of the Doug Thorley Tri-y's to use for smog, but I need the DA model with the AIR ports.

actually i decided to stay with the bassani's and kurt sent me the other header. it fit like a charm, so i boxed it back up and shipped it back for ceramic coating. i just got it back from being coated on friday, and installed it. i got to fire up my truck for the first time in two months, open headers ftw! anyway the exhaust shop was closed saturday so it is waiting till this friday to get welded up and i will post again with butt dyno results. in the mean time i was thinking about changing out the muffler, i currently have a 24 inch long magnaflow dumped and was kinda wanting to get something louder. i like the chambered muffler sound but not at the cost of flow ratings. i was thinking maybe a hooker maxflow (not aerochamber) 3" center in/out i think its only 14 inches long, and straight thru perforated core and just keeping it dumped. anyone run one of these?

I think its an hour of dyno tuning for $275 or 300 from Jim. If you dont already have a tune, Which obviously you dont yet. Otherwise its like $75/hr for the dyno..

I believe so.. Mine felt all around better after it was street tuned. Dyno is more just to see what kinda number you can put down, But street tuning for your DD seems to make it have better power all around and better drive ability...
