UPDATE: The Max is now turbo see page 5                      ^reached 152 MPH max speed^

Here are some nice pictures from my trip to Lebanon Valley Dragway.    
    

Here's a time slip from when I was non turbo. 14.3@ 96.5mph new numbers coming soon

   
   
 
here are some pics from the exhaust install. I should be adding more soon.

 
Here's a picture of one of the stock manifolds compared to one of the headers.

this pic shows the test pipe (looks like a cat, but its hollow)

The Y pipe. The stock setup had 3 cats. now i have no cats:)

I wrapped the headers to help keep the engine bay cool

The max up on jacks while I work on the exhaust
I went with a stock resonator an muffler to keep things quiet

Old pic of the max and m y ex gf -------->

 

 the new muffler had surgery to remove  restrictions. I used this cutaway of the old muffler to determine wich section to cut out in order to bypass the interrior chambers. the muffler was painted black and installed.

the hollow test pipe 

    I made myself an open exhaust setup for use at the drag strip. It's just a simple side pipe made with some cheap universal exhaust parts from advanced auto. I welded a nut on for an o2 bung. Cost to make was about $20. The car ran 5 tenths quicker in the 1/4 mile. thats some serious bang for your buck.
