Yes, this is without the 22s. They added 96lbs to the truck.

<strong>THAT'S IT!!!! I'm staying up all night and slapping the nitrous back on, then breaking into the track and getting my times back down below you and Gandolphxx.

Seriously, great times Tom. <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> That is impressive to see that Burb run that fast. I'm gonna wait until after the Thunder event and see about improving my times a bit.

As to cutouts, they should fit easily.

 

excellent times Tom! I've really been wanting to try and put my HD in the 13's via some bolt-ons and a Whipple. Besides, the extra towing capacity never hurt either. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Congrats on the new ET. I'm sure you surprise a few guys at the stoplights.

I haven't found a section of pipe that is either straight or doesn't have a support in the way. I haven't noticed what it looks like under an AV but I'll have to see if there is any difference between the two next time one comes in.

 

Thanks Trevor! The truck pulls 10,000lbs like it's not even there and has surprised a few cars on the road. One of them being my neighbor in his 3rd gen Firebird <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I wonder how he explained to his girlfriend why he got beat by a Suburban.

 

Did you notice any difference in gas mileage with normal driving? What about when towing? I'll assume that the boost comes in low in the RPM band since you're pulling low 2.0 60' times in a big-*** 'burb. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

I can usually see about 12 MPG during a mix of city/highway driving and not laying into it to much. Towing is a different story. Granted it has no problem at all pulling an enclosed car hauler (big wall) weighing close to 10,000lbs full, but it takes alot of fuel to do it. The best I have seen being nice to it on the highway (65-75) is 7.6 MPG. Staying in the 70-80 range will give me about 7.1. The only benefit to this is that you know the next bathroom stop won't be to far down the road. The most mileage I have pulled out of a tank is 265.

Here is a video of my trip down the track -
