Welcome aboard Pipes. Did you get picture host or do you still need some help. Just email them to me if you need to have help posting...we gotta see that 3.2 a little larger.

Looks like GarnetRedCoupe has a twin brother on here now.

I will upload larger pics when I return to home base....away for a week. The wheels are forged factory fuchs, 9 x 16 rears and 8 x 16 fronts. The rears are shod with 245x45's that just fit into the wheel well. I had the wheels taken down to bare metal and then polished. The cores are painted gloss black. She's still wearing factory paint also.

And the same wheel sizes also. Wish I had the 9/8 combo instead of the 8/7.
Or at least a 9/7 combo.

the 9's cost me a fortune to buy and get refinished. I originally had 8's on the rear that I had refinished back in 1994. I did the same thing polishing the rims and painting the cores, but I could only fit them with 225's. I wanted more muscel in the rear. The exhaust is B & B stainless headers with a single chamber muffler & two 4" oval tips. LLLLLOOOOUUUUDDD but sounds great!

Well get some big pics up....I wanna see. Speaking of loud...I am curious to try a muffler bypass. I have cat bypass into a Bursch which is pretty loud, but I want a little louder.

I was planning on doing the backdated SSI into a dual in,dual out.

PICS..

I get reverberation with B&B headers between 2000 and 2800 rpm. Beyond 2800, in any gear, she mellows out nice. The B&B with single chamber muffler is real "throaty" and deep. I had a cat "test pipe" for 10 years with the stock headers and heat exchangers and a crossover pipe. I had a stainless steel muffler with dual 4" diameter tips, but it wasn't as loud or cool sounding as this new setup. Bigger pics next week when I return to home base.

I would love you hear your car. I have the B&B dual 4in outlet with a fabspeed bypass and stock headers.

I've also made extensive engine mods...oversize intake manifold with K&N cone filter, port and polished intake heads, 5 grind valves with double strength springs & titanium keepers, 10.3 to 1 compression, cams reground, new flashed chip for this setup, and the exhaust mods explained above. There's not much more I can do to increase HP except maybe the meth/water injection system that I'm trying to find if anyone has done successfully on a 911. It sure suprises a lot of muscle cars on the street!!!

I swear we have the same car! What do you have done to the transmission? I have a short shift kit and the "shift gate" from performance products. Thinking of upgrading to a G-50 when this one goes.

I'm running a stock G-50 transmission & clutch/flywheel/pressure plate combo. I don't have a short shifter, but I'm so used to the shifting after having this car for 20 years I don't think I could understand a different throw of the shifter. You live in Baltimore and I live in Oxford, we have to get together. Do you ever make the trip to OC??
