Beats me. I tell the people at VP what I'm doing and they tell me what to buy. I trust them to know. They were nice enough to supply everything I needed turnkey.

Leaded gas will destroy your O2 sensors. So 109 makes sense.

Tell me the R8 has a carbon side blade and black interior!

Car is ridiculously fast for freeway duty. Speedtech 3.0 Loud exhaust is civilized cruising at even 4000rpm. Jumping on it leads to shrieking. Love it.
Jim,

Glad to hear you are enjoying the exhaust and other upgrades! Thanks again.

I don't get it either. Harleys running straight pipes blasting around all the time and the cops never give them a second look. But go blast an open exhaust car (similar to Jim's experience) in a deserted industrial park and they come screaming in from all over to catch you.

I gotta give some props to SDPD. Yeah, they're cops, but they're in my experience the most reasonable cops I've ever dealt with. Back east the cops were pretty brutal with bikers, speeders etc (luckily my collection of PBA cards kept me free).

CHP gets no love from me, but SDPD - Ive politely explained myself and never received a ticket (unlike the CHP ticket mill). For a so-cal city that is broke, I gotta give it to SDPD, they're a pretty class act.

//did I just DEFEND the cops??? - what the HELL is wrong with me!!!!//

MS109 doesnt work better, c16 is much better for higher boost but it is leaded and will foul up 02 sensors .

That's the most exciting unswer i ever recived from 6sp...your pic in your avatar gets me flying.

BUT i thank you very much for your unswer because it'll help me much and i've noted it,in your post, that you know this stuff very well.

Besides i've seen you have a 740+WHP car that car must be a blast...i'm getting right now some parts from Mark to get close to 580 WHP. may be by the end of agost i have her ready.
