Thanks, Mike
Heya Mike,

So that's a one-off hand built y-pipe that's larger diameter and has better flow. The diameter is important since it mates up to the NA 996 throttle body without adapters... The y-pipe's not pretty so we go it powder coated red... Also, the tube going into it is for h20

Mr. Ross, I do believe that you are the man. That looks fabulous and it's lighter to boot. Killed two birds with one stone. Very impressive!!!

And with those words she is being very kind. Jewelry would be a far better investment.

However, I can't afford to throw any stones.

Thank you mr. smoothcab I just got back from a drive with JWGT2. I was the passenger and it sucked! It was funny breaking loose at 40-50mph and going sideways. I need my RA-1s I guess...

Hehe... you're right. Actually, I look at this stuff as an investment in my fun/hobby and a way to enjoy life... It's better than drugs, drinking, gambling. I'd rather be addicted to boost than anything else.

Old Back Dog's looking pretty hot. That big y-pipe sounds interesting. Did you add the bigger intake plenum also?

Why would you be putting water into your intake? Is it Aquafina or Calistoga? Could it be no....it's No?

p.s. the car looks awesome...don't take it home before Thursday so I can see it in person...

heya chuck, feel free to come on in and drive it... ask James (JWGT2) what it was like since he drove it today... I hated being a passenger! I swear I'm done with nitrous.. it's water from now on! I used to use Calistoga but am now torn between Perrier and San Peligrino..
