Well, onward to the mods. As previously mentioned I have installed a set of Magnecor Competition plug wires and a set of 14" LE "meshie" wheels with 195/60/14 Falken Azenis Rt615's (a 200 treadwear sticky autocross tire).
The next round is starting now. I have a Summit electric fan that will replace the clutch fan. I'm also swapping in a set of aftermarket gauges to monitor water temp, oil pressure, oil temperature, and amps accurately. The big deal is going to be the exhaust though! Currently it still has the original reactor/manifold, 2" piping, and can muffler (it hasn't had a cat since I got it, it was clogged and the car is emissions exempt).
Well that's not going to make any power and it's heavy and ugly. So I did a little shopping and came away with a used Racing Beat header from a IT race car. I then called up Summit and ordered a DEI header wrap kit, a 2.5" Dynomax UltraFlo welded bullet race muffler (which I'm using as a resonator), a 2.5" Summit fully-welded race muffler, and some exhaust paint.
I'm going to clean up the header and wrap it and my exhaust guy is going to cut off the previously messed with collector and make a new true 2.5" collector. He's also going to connect everything together with 2.5" mandrel-bent tubing and weld the whole thing front-to-back. This is the same guy that handbuilt my 1-piece 2.5" mandrel bent under-axle exhaust on the cop car.
As you can see I have a special plan for the finishing touch. A custom ordered Stainless Steel 2.5" dual tip.
I also ordered a new header gasket from Racing Beat and as soon as it gets here the whole system is going in. It should be loud.
