Hehe, no updates until I get it back and put some miles on it, get the new exhaust on, the new high-compression motor, and the built tranny
Should be interesting, we're doubling the line pressure on the auto and revalving it, it's got shaved heads, and a 2.5" header-back waiting to go on (note: Borla headers sound like crap dumping into the stock cats/1.75" piping.) Then I'll get some dyno numbers......
Should be nice......
Here's a pic awaiting the tranny rebuild, with the winter wheels/tires on......

Sounds like you should get some nice results... It's nice to know someone else is taking the effort to put so much work into an A/T wagon-

2.5's have dual exhaust ports, so I've got 2 pipes on each side. My stock heatshields make much more racket than the headers, but I can hear the exhaust pulses hitting my clogged cats
Should have the exhaust on in a couple weeks, when I have time on a weekend to get the car to the shop for a day for fab, then I'll have some dyno numbers.

Got my Morettes on, finally. Plug and play install, couldn't be easier. The difference is remarkable; there's a ton more usable, targeted light, and I barely need high beams anymore. Highly recommended.
Also, slammed the car on the new springs and put on the winter wheels/tires so that I can use the car as a snowplow

Hehe, those wheels will only be on there for the trip to Reno.
I'm selling them to Nate for his drift car, then mounting some real all seasons on my black PC'd 99's that are currently on the Coupe.
Will be the hotness

Threw it on the dyno
With 2 clogged cats, stock exhaust, and borked O2 sensor and knock sensor, it put down a blistering 104hp/115tq
More dyno runs after everything's fixed, we just wanted to get a baseline
