Cant belive this is my car (except for my ugly ass orginal dump tube that Darrell pointed out to me so it can eat away at me until i have him fab up a TIG welded stainless piece of art). To all the guys at Proven Power, thanks for your hard work and moreover, for doing EVERYTHING RIGHT THE FIRST TIME! Which as we all know, rarely happens in this game.....unless you deal with the right people...i.e. PROVEN POWER. If you need anything done to your ride, you are a RUH-TARD unless you take it to Proven Power. Period. Dyno Day tomorrow! Pics, Vids and Graphs will all be posted.

Thanks ! We really appreciate hearing that ! I know its been a long 5 days without your car... good news is we drove her in low load on the dyno to ensure the car is ready to make power

Everything checked out good and now she is ready for some abuse tomarrow

A/C, P/S, 2.5" to 3" downpipe. She is ready to go !

Final engine shot complete (with old dumptube ) :

The car runs and sounds great and should produce the numbers the owner is hoping for
