I must admit that I did run a Tiburon once that ran a 14.3 with bolt-ons.

It's not even a contest between the two cars. I speak from that with experience also. A good friend has a Tiburon with a modded suspension, at our normal track - GingerMan - and I'm a good 20mph faster throughout the whole course. Driving skill wise, we're close enough to be a wash.

agreed, one of our locals has the Borla system, and it sounds really good, but I would not categorize it as loud by any means.

Out of all the exhausts Ive heard, the SP2 was the loudest. Borla is a little louder than the RB, and the RB is only a little louder than stock, so Id say the Borla is just right for someone who wants something loud, but not too loud

IRC- The pixs are real nice, and the exhaust looks great!

Now that you have it installed go find some underpasses to go through at about 8k rpm's wide open. Sounds like an ALMs car.

Looks even better with exhaust finishers on as well. Pain to keep the finishers clean though since hymee takes up most of the hole.

There is a service road about 3 miles down the beach. I am about 5 feet from it. Thios is the Causeway beach. A lot of imports and expensive sports cars hangout there at night. Usually it is packed. Clearwater is about 20 minutes from there. It is awesome at sunset. I will take those pics this coming wednesday. I will post them then.

Very cool! Hey Police, not to hijack but you should check out a thread in the Lounge about a carjacking....right up your alley, you'll laugh your *** off.

Now back to these sunset pics...
