well i slapped together the rest of my exhaust...it is ugly but i plan on going with a complete 3 inch exhaust in the future. i just wanted to get her on the road.
here is a pic...like i said its a hack job....i think there is even a part of a fence post in there somewhere. it goes form a single 4 inch to dual 3 inch to 2.5 at the mufflers.
after i installed it i had to take her for a drive. i took it easy because i was smelling all kinds of stuff burning off. paints, oils, anti freeze that had spilled onto the exhaust wrap. i did kind of get on it... LOOOOVE that turbo whine. i saw it hit 7 lbs of boost real fast so i let up. when the turbo is spooling down it sounded like a police siren winding down lol. i forgot to mention in the build that the air filter sticks out through the core support and is actually just an inch or so from the front grill so i think that helps in hearing the spooling.
my tune is way off. before it was even in the boost it was pig rich at 10.0 to 1 so i have to tinker with that.
one other thing i noticed is how much quieter the motor/exhaust system is compared to the headers and no turbo. it almost too quiet now
hope to get her out tomorrow and do some data logging.
