here's a new update. Idk if i mentioned earlier but I received an axle back exhaust from dynomax since they want to use my car in a video so I'm in the process of installing that and the bbk x pipe I ordered to go along with the headers. here's some pictures.

here's the old exhuast. not that great of a setup


Here's the new semi mocked up

Just an update. the new exhuast is complete. sounds alright but does have some rasp on the higher end. may need some resonators but I'll wait on what I'm going to do till next year.

Also passed emissions finally so that's good to knowing the supercharger didn't cause any issues.

I've started a list of things I plan to do over the winter and let's just say it's going to be a BUSY one!

Nothing new currently. Just trying to enjoy her as much as I can before it goes into hibernation. After that everything begins. Lots of plans for this winter. Every day I add more.

I did reserve my new wheels tho. Z/28 replicas

Quick update. just purchased an air ride setup off of another member on here. Wasn't expecting to go that route but I love the slammed look and didn't want to miss on the opportunity. So there's another project for this winter

Also looking at getting

-VIS AMS carbon fiber hood
-Finish skinning all the interior parts in carbon fiber
-some suspension upgrades
-dynomat
-and whatever else I come up with!

stay tuned! this Sunday I have my video shoot with dynomax and after that the car is getting put up in the garage for the winter and the build starts.

What plugs you going with just swapped mine out for the 1 step colder plugs from denso itv22, so far major improvement over stock . Nice build

Same plugs I'm running. I'm happy with them so far. Deff seemed to smooth out the car a little. I do think I have a small boost leak still. I think I fixed the major one I had (blow off valve was not tighted) so once the car is in storage I'll be doing a boost test and changing all the pipe clamps over to nice t bolt clamps for a better seal.
