The car runs now, but with no exhaust post downpipe where the cat is. It's been in the teens here weatherwise lately and we also got 18" of snow so that's been hindering my progress. Ill have an update in late january.

Crazy stuff.

By the way, who's doing the transmission build-up to complement this torque and power enhancements?
