You need a lesson in different dynos is all. The dyno at S-Squared reads lower than basically every dyno you'll ever see results publicized from.

I didn't see mention of a different up-pipe that's all, and from what I gather it's pretty restrictive with a cat in it.

I don't know if his is there or not. Usually it's around 10 whp, but more importantly it spools faster. I'd assume it's been replaced previously.

Yup,

Completely catless. Smell doesn't seem so bad today, guess I'm getting used to it by now. Also, I wasn't stuck in rush hour traffic either.

Drove it up 80 to Auburn & back this morning, but didn't get the chance to hit Icehouse yet. Still seems much more smooth, with turbo spooling coming on earlier than before. Acceleration in 5th seems stronger as well. Punches right up to 80 with no problem, though I'm still keeping close to the speed limit to avoid the po-po's.

Don't know why I'm so worried, the damn Harley's that drive by are 3 times as loud as I am.
