An AFPR is an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, necessary when you run headers/exhaust so you can bump the fuel pressure a bit to match the increased volume of air entering the motor. (More power!) You could also use a piggyback or inline device to fool the ecm to dump more fuel...

The exhaust on the car had two borla xr1 race mufflers when I put it on, one at the rear in the stock location, and one where the cat is normally. I have one cat and one borla that are identical in size, so you can just swap one or the other in depending on your needs. I believe Dennis then had a section of the exhaust removed and had another borla welded in its place, so in normal use there are three xr1 mufflers on the car. It's still loud, those are racing mufflers and you can see straight through them.

The headers are the key to the sound, the thing rips.

Here you go Gretch.



Dennis - Great video. I got a chance to visit Laguna this summer with my family on vacation to watch the cars run. Thank's to you I also got a chance to run the course.

It was re-painted by the PO within the past couple years, but is very true to the original factory finish (by comparing with door jams and other areas showing original paint). More pictures of my baby here:

Sadly, this paint my get a premature re-do thanks to a horrid truck leaking sand out the back on the freeway Friday <img border="0" alt="[grrrrrrr]" title="" src="graemlins/cussing.gif" /> . Nothing like a pitted windshield and scratched up hood and fenders to brighten one's trip to work.

THe cat was replaced by a longer Y-pipe connecting from the end of the two headers (for better high rpm power). So now the configuration is Level 2 headers, longer Y-pipe then two Borlas. The car is quieter with the muffler than with the cat, particularly at partial throttle.
