Andy,

Excellent results!!

My experience is that the ITB setup add about 75-100 rwhp.

Can you post the dyno chart?

Any Dyno results prior to the ITBs?

Your GTS "sounds" like a lot of fun....

Best,
Marc

Don't post pictures of that header system. You are just rubbing salt in an ever growing wound in my wallet!

Thanks!

It's very important to me that things look good, work well, and fit well (this exhaust is a pain in the butt to install...no way around that!) The "money" part of making stuff is just about "how I make my living" to me....I'm not trying to get rich. Just trying to do the best job I can, provide people with great stuff, all for a fair price.

There's way too many people doing a half assed job of making things....and that pisses me off...and I'm very "vocal" about this. I've "watched" these "crooks" come and go...for over 40 years...in the Porsche "world". I've watched several of these "crooks" go and come, in the 928 world, too.

I "choose" to be different.....and it is a choice....the "crooks" could do it that way, too!

Greg,
that system looks sooooo awesome....I am working hard to save up for your system and I see the cross over looks alittle different from the old devek one I have and the extra muffler \resonator out back may just do the trick to quiet it down.....would the headers back part of your system fit the devek headers. /that way I wouldnt have to monkey with the header removal.?

Mark, 100k on a stroker...wow that is great so I may have many miles of smiles left!!!!!!

Oh I looked a little closer....that cross over is way back from where mine is...that would move the torque max a little higher in the rpms???? is that close?

Hmmm. I hadn't noticed that, before. Imagine that happening. Someone must have screwed up?

No such luck.

Getting rid of that one tube that has a "dent in it", to clear the starter, is worth the effort to change the headers.

I dislike what that one pipe is doing to that one cylinder....

There are a few with at least 150k miles and almost 20 yrs old!

ITB's really unleash the horses. The best from stock intakes seem to be about 500 rwhp, and with ITB's close to 600rwhp, all with the old Devek Level ll headers.

what else has greg developed. I would love his headers and if he had new exhaust that would be cool too but I am happy with the way he set things up so far...just wish I lived close to him or maybe its better I dont..
Very nice numbers.
