Several months ago I went to a dyno day with some friends at a local shop. Few of the guys wanted to see a burnout because on one of my three runs I broke a strap while on the dyno lol. The traction control was on the first time, the next few times I don't know what was going on and then it finally wanted to play nice and work right lol.

Thanks!

I think a main part of it was due to my messed up tune and the 3500 stall but that was fixed shortly after that video. Now it's like nothing to :burnout:.

Capitol T&T starts March 2nd, you going?

[offroadkarter]

that exhaust sounds wicked good!!!!!!

[Blackmobile]

Slow start but a great ending. I likey!

[Blackened300a]

Love the exhaust! Sounds real 60's muscle car.

[bigjon]

that exhaust does sound beautiful. yeah, it can be tough to do a brake stand burnout with the trac control on. :)

Dude nice burnout. I need to come pay a visit to your shop. I'll see if surfer would be up for a road trip. By the way i live 10 min. away from capital raceway.

[MarauderMark]

Absolutely nice:up:

[ckadiddle]

Loved the sound of the exhaust. Nice smoke too.

[ctrlraven]

Thanks guys!

My shop isn't like a shop your thinking about lol. It's just a 4 car single bay garage. You should def try to come out to Capitol, we should run before you get a Trilogy so I can hold a win or two over you :lol:

alright, I'm suprised no one asked...
or am I the only one that doesn't know?

WHAT WERE THE HP #'S ON THE DYNO???

[TiTo35]

I must agree with the other...sounds good...looks good... :up:

Here is the thread I made about the dyno with videos.

What are the specs on the exhaust system.??

[ctrlraven]

OEM exhaust manifolds, 1st set of cats are OEM, 2nd set of cats removed, 2.25" piping connecting to OEM H-pipe crossover then 2.5" piping Flowmaster Super 40 series mufflers, CVPI over axle tail pipes to 3.5" res-delete tips extended out 1.3" past the rear bumper.

[captain]

Thankyou.
Is the H pipe intact?
The 2.25 pipe starts just after the H?

[ctrlraven]

Yep small section of the factory H-pipe is still there. The 2.25" piping starts from the front of where the 2nd set of cats used to be at to the start of the H-pipe, then it's 2.5" to the mufflers.

[captain]

I am looking forward to matching that sound system. Thanks for your help!
Wonder if the locals will agree to pulling cats? 10 bucks says they wont do it.

Yeah....that was pretty lame.
I'd definately pull it off you-tube before you make a mockery of the MM. :D

[ctrlraven]

Yeah touching cats here in MD is illegal unless the station is certified. My friend who was a manager of a exhaust shop did it after hours for me. It is something that you could tackle yourself if you have the tools, space and piping and clamps. Cut them out, band-aid the temp pipe in and then take it to an exhaust shop and have them weld it up. That's how I've always gotten rid of cats if I couldn't find someone to do it.

[ctrlraven]

I'll make sure I get a new burnout video just for you. :rolleyes:

[CRUZTAKER]

Don't do it for me....do it for the masses.

There's enough you-tube vids of hondas and ***** owning Marauders that shouldn't have ever been posted.
But they're there....:shake:

Use an editor to scrap the beginning of the video where you left the traction control on!

[ctrlraven]

I'm not worried about it I'll have more videos up to redeem it once it gets warmer. I have a set of wheels/tires from a 2000 Mustang GT that are just dying to be blown. I might wait until I get everything squared away with my rear axle (4.10 gears, rebuild, clean up some seepage and weld it).

If I had someone to doing the video recording I could get some videos of MM. I've called out several local people even ones I knew would beat me and they still just passed on the offer cause they aren't really sure what I have done to the car. I love my serpentine belt whine which I was told would go away after a few weeks and now like 10 months later it is still there and nothing is wrong lol. You can hear it slightly in the burnout video after the 1st attempt then I had put it in N and reved it and as the revs come down you can hear the whine.

That would make more sense

I would have but I didn't take the video or upload it, a friend of mine did so it was out of my hands.

[shodude]

should just add OWNED by TC lol over the video at that part.. i think you redem yourself with that nice smokey burnout! that sounds WICKED. i installed 40 it get that sound and mine is just too damn quiet. but everything else on mine is stock.

[ctrlraven]

Remove the 2nd set of cats lol.
