Looks like I will be visiting the Great Northwest around the end of June through July something.

So start planning the parties! I need some Dick's.

One person has shown an interest in having some "BHR stuff" installed on their 8. So if anybody else would like some work done let me know. Oh, and Charles R. Hill will more than likely be joining me.

The extra power definitely is nice. Especially on a nice cool sunny day. Just warm enough for the tires to be sticky and cool enough for the motor to purr.

With the turbo and bhr midpipe w/davesport CAT it is not that loud. It does have nice low tone though. Relatively speaking that is. Here is a vid nemesis8 took during our dyno day. My exhaust is not that quiet in person but it gives you an idea. Atilla took some vids of me on the street from the SOCAL dyno day but he has not posted them yet. Hopefully you can make it to one of the meets around Portland

Mostly 217 and 26. I was messing with the bimmers on 26W circle on ramp to 217S and then 26E through the tunnel getting on 405N. Where do you mostly drive?


Note: For the mods I was NOT racing. Both times the other cars were behind me and they were following me entering the freeway. Just so happens they were a bit surprised they could not over take me
