The Beast Runs Again!
 

Gentlemen, the Beast runs again! I fired her up for the first time yesterday. I was actually surprised because it fired right up, nothing went wrong. Since I totally rewired everything I was thinking something just had to be wrong. But everything was correct and it fired up!

I really like the sound of the Magnaflow muffler too. It is actually much quieter than my previous exhaust but still has that certain growl to it. I should be able to take it on the road tomorrow so I’ll get a better idea what it sounds like overall.

I still have some major computer tuning to do because everything has changed so I really have to re-map all of it. I’ll keep you guys posted.

WOW! :eek:

Beautiful!!!!

What kind of finish is that in the engine bay?

Do you have to re-map the computer if a new muffler was attached?

Dude, you are a sick, sick man.

In a good way, of course :D

Blue, I found the insulation at the Pamona swapmeet (you may have heard about Pamona). The product has a high heat barrier effect as well as sound deadining. It's a place call ProRod, they are at:

DD, I have to re-map because of going from a supercharger setup to twin turbos, different injectors, etc.

Camp, yes I know....and I have admitted it several times....publicly.

freakin awesome!

I cant even find the time to clean my engine...too much fun driving it I guess.

Can't wait to see more of the beast!

Clear the streets! That thing is bad a$$!

I can't even begin to imagine how fast that thing will be.

Incredible job.

Please post hundreds of pictures for us.

Unbelievable--that looks incredible! I am sick with jealousy and admiration--great job! And I get proud of myself over installing a new steering wheel! Ha!

Turbo-cars are actually pretty quiet beacuse turbo itself shatters the high-pitched soundwaves.
