Loving the exhaust sound
I am really enjoying the sound, although at around 2600 rpm it makes a pretty loud droning sound (can't remember the word to describe but I'm sure you understand).
I plan to take it for a dyno in the next week or 2 to see if the 32 hp claim stands up.
I think this car is soooo pretty. I love the black wheels. I love how it handles with the PSS9 suspension upgrade (thanks Christian for selling me yours). This car simply rocks!

Did the dyno yesterday. 220 at the wheels in my 3.2 Boxster S The race shop that did this specializes in creating monster Toyota Supras. They also are into drag racing and have a number of championships and world records according to the shop manager. He said they have a 2300 hp Supra street car! He said they never drive it on the streets. Duh, I wonder why? He said they do 4-5 seconds 1/4 mile in the most hopped up dragster, one of which I saw in their shop. They had a 996 TT that runs 7 second 1/4 mile. I asked him what kind of suspension one of their modded Supra street cars have, and he said they don't do much road racing so he isn't sure, but knows it is some sort of coil over. Different strokes. I'd rather have the 220 hp Boster and enjoy the twisties. 1/4 mile runs don't do it for me.
The shop said their software interpolates for atmostpheric conditions, so when I bring it back with the instant-g exhaust system mod, it will be a true comparison.
