The only improvement I could see would be is that it sometimes gets a little raspy at WOT. I'm debating putting in the resonated X-Pipe to cure that, but I'm concerned that it might muffle it too much. I don't want to lose the sound and volume I have while normal driving just to have WOT sound a little better.

I need to throw the car on the dyno now that my performance mods are pretty much done, but haven't had the chance yet.

Videos will be coming ASAP- my camera just needs to recharge after the concert I went to last night

Side note: the guys at Lonestar Performance were telling me they just finished up putting the STS Turbo on a V6 recently. Said it was putting down 389 rwhp but he couldn't remember the torque numbers. He said it looked like a great system. Told me he could do mine for about $8000 out the door, wish I had that kinda money!
Glad to hear the intial report.

Who did we see in concert last night??!!!! (We're concert junkies ourselves...lol)

And standby for some V6 Turbo news. We're (with Motiva/Hellion) getting it together on a Twin Turbo setup that should be closer to 475 and be under $7000. That's the goal.
