@Sysgen-- I saw a picture of a 951 race car on the Lindsey Racing site that had a similar set up, and actually ended up buying a used Mafterburner from the owner of the car. When I asked him about the exhaust, he informed me that he was dumping the waste gate to atmosphere via the smaller pipe. I really liked the asymmetrical look and decided to do the same thing.

@Scott--The car is an 89'with a bunch of Lindsey stuff under the hood. The wheels were found on R.L. under the heading Wheel ***** Store is Open, in the classified section. I believe they are Champion RG5 and 18" and are the exact wheel I wanted for the car and could never find. I just had a set of BBS Sport Cup two piece wheels refinished when I found these. The Champions are 8"-10" and the BBS are 7.5" and 10". I am selling the BBS wheels and will be posting a for sale thread soon.

95onepussy, yes.... Thanks!

After a number of sets, I decided that the Ruf's suit my taste and the car the best.

John (jjmudd) was a pleasure to deal with.
