Hey Dave-

Did you fire this thing up yet? If so, how's the sound out of the M&K RSR style muffler? Are there perforated baffles inside the outlets? If so, any tweety birds inside like mine had?

See my post elsewhere on using Ben's inside caps bored out somewhat. That seems to work pretty well on my 1-in, 2-out. I'll try to drop by for a sound comparo.

Nice looking R, by the way.

[TRE Cup]

we have a mk with the perf inserts on Rob Abbott's ST and no tweety birds. Its a two in and two out
The light ivory R-ish ST ;-) will be up and running by end of the week. So Saturday might be a good "sound off" comparo

Weird. Must be something about the 1-in.

Saturday is good. Loudest buys lunch?

Or, maybe bring it to SuperCar Sunday, Porsche being the favored marque on the 29th.

[RWebb]

did you weld in pieces to stiffen this one up like on the Framboise car?

[TRE Cup]

No
this car did not get the extensive work that Alex's car received. NO other car has received all that work ! ;-)

we did do some reinforcements here and there though.... can't help myself, it just sorta happens

[R K T]

Looking GOOD.........as usual!

[TRE Cup]

a few more pics- more coming next week

[lfot]

I vote for the stripe kit.

[CurtEgerer]

Another beauty Nice work Dave!

[mjshira]

looks good Dave, just don't let her take my two parking spaces... ;-)

I vote no decals, clean white. I like the engine grille, front fenders are very cool. nice stuff. you guys have been doing some really clean cars the last few years (not that have not always, I just have noticed a lot more magazine type cars from TRE)

NICE

[cool5]

Another great car Dave. At some point it would be nice to see, in print, a complete list of TRE built cars along with pics and a short bio/history on each, as if you don't already have enough to do.

Oh yea, I vote for the stripe kit, and keep the pics coming

[jwetering]

Hey, you guys are getting pretty good at this! Nice ride.

[t6dpilot]

Another fantastic car from Dave B. at TRE. That is fantastic!

[TRE Cup]

The client picked the car up this week. Pelicans in the San Jose area may see it on a favorite twisty road from time to time, or track days in the area. Here are a few pics with its final stripe set up out in the sun.
