Huh? I didn't hear you, my ears are ringing. Just got back from a drive in it.

Drove it the last two nights, actually getting a little more used to it. Too much interior noise which bothers my ears after a while. A long trip like we did last month would be torture. I'll eventually have to get something with mufflers that soften the noise at low rpms. At the moment I can cruise at 35 in fourth gear and it's still loud. Don't think the exhaust was designed for a performance cam.

Other than that, it's pretty awesome when you apply the boost, just screams bloody murder. I would like to take it to Kil Kare at least once as it is just to scare the $#!T out of all the mustangs there.

It still needs to be tuned, so maybe that'll help. I guess they got the dyno fixed at Cincy so I better get that scheduled.

I'll let you know if I decide to part with it.

I can't wait to see and hear all of these cars at Mid-Ohio for our track day with all these performance and handling mods.

It is coming a little closer..... it seemed so far away, but it getting here. I am looking forward to going to Gingerman on Sept 17th as well.

@Mike- Even if you decide you just have to keep it, if you could get me the info of the guy who made it for you that would be awesome. I forget who was asking talking to me about wanting the Retro Chambered and then I told him about yours, and he was interested as well. Damn old age is getting to me, I don't even want to think what it will be like when I turn 25 this year.

He made up some cards for me, here's the info on them:

Phone: 937-728-2994
fax: 425-940-4998
E-mail: order@madhammer.com

I believe his name is Gary.

Just like the stainless works retro chambered systems, I don't think the intent was to run them with long tubes. It just gets too loud. Like Darryl and Nikis car... WHOA. Way to loud!

masterwinning · 07-16-2011, 08:08 AM

Jason, I don't want to hear a word about being to loud, you set off car alarms, that isn't the bad part, the bad part is that they were two parking lots over.

Darryl's exhaust is a good comparison to how loud mine is at the moment.

Actually it's not too bad coasting down hills.

I haven't set off alarms, but I have returned down a road where I hit the boost a little and people come out of their homes to see what the #$% is going on. I just have to plan my routes where I don't back-track.

It was great fun driving to Indy with many of you today. It was also good to see many of you who I haven't seen in quite a while. It was a fun day! Thanks.

gahammerle · 07-16-2011, 09:50 PM

I echo DE. It was fun driving there and meeting those I hadn't met yet.

Here's the video I took on I-70. Sorry about the wind noise - not sure how to edit that out.

Darth_Emma · 07-16-2011, 10:11 PM

I've learned a lesson by watching that video... must punch it when driving by the camera!

gahammerle · 07-16-2011, 10:27 PM

Yep, and open the cut-outs! If I was more talented, I would have moved the camera to follow each one as it went by to get the full exhaust effect. I'll practice that so be ready for next time.

Damn, that's some pretty good driving, I think you should be looking ahead while driving that fast.
