Thumbs up 944n/a mods complete

So I have had a set of MSDS headers sitting in my apartment for two months. Last weekend I finally got around to having them installed, marking the completion of my first wave of modifications. Below is everything:

MSDS Headers
MSD Ignitiion
Bursch Exhaust
Autothority Chip
Throttle Cam
MSDS Air Intake
Koni Sports
Redline Rollbar
Wires, plugs, etc.

The overall outcome is GREAT! Thecar runs much smoother, idles much smoother, accelerates quicker, and revs more freely. I drove out to Detroit from Chicago yesterday and was cruising with a late-model 300ZX n/a. Keep in mind this is roughly a 190hp v6 and this guy couldn't get away from me. At low speeds the car is still no turbo, but it is A LOT more fun to drive. The last things I am thinking about doing (for now) are big-bore throttle body and an adjustable fuel regulator. Does anyone have any experience with either?

Thanks...

Cool

Rob,
How difficult was it to mate the MSDS Header to the Bursch Ehaust? Was it a direct bolt-on or was welding/fitting required?

The original cat is still in place, so the exhaust bolts to the cat, and then a reducer needed to be welded to the other end of the cat so the header could bolt on. I thought about putting a straight pipe in place of the cat, but decided not too for emisions/noise purposes.

Try replacing the cat with two "bullet" style resonators!
