I'm with you, I think it sounds good, Been told so by many others as well, Most people who hate on the sound probably never heard one in real life, they do sound bad on videos.

Do you and SMB have single or twin scroll versions?

I have the twin scroll variant.

Did you get any crank case codes with your install ? Got mines on and it's throwing a code

I'm running JLT catch can and it threw a code a couple of times. Cleared it using the Cobb tuner and haven't returned since.

I don't have it yet, while we have money in our main account for a GT350 if we wanted, the wife would blow a fuse if I spent 2.3k on a Vargas right now I have just about enough in the "Discretionary" account (hidden slush fund) for it, Buying the OPT 7 indicators put me back a bit though

Gotcha. That's funny, I just bought those same turn signals. Hopefully they arrive sometime this week!

Maybe when she sees how fast the car is, she will forget? Lol

That's why all my mods are "reliability" mods. Them "reliability" axlebacks though!

Adam, doesn't stock these, we drop ship them all. I am 99% sure we are out of stock on 2+ currently. Once Adam gets the order over to us, I will have them check stock. I know we had a couple left last week, and sold two. There may be one back there somewhere.

Big turbo is less heat so reliability mod for sure. Axle backs mean less back pressure so better for the engine right

Concur for the turbo. I believe it may be possible to get up 400 rwhp with the stock turbo and E85, but with very aggressive timing and turbo's putting out a lot of heat at that point.

I'm making more power over my stock turbo with same boost pressure and slightly less max timing and charge temp.

Can't wait fir the write up. I like your eco build looks like a very fun car. Videos of acceleration will be very much appreciated.
