I'm glad to see Paul is still open for business after some of his recent issues.  I can't wait to see how this build turns out.

Yeah Ike. People just have to exercise some patience. He's up n getting caught up on his back logs now and throwing in a few warranty work in the mix doesn't help either.

The build is looking really good so far.  You should make a build thread on v6p too.  Paul could use some good vibes over there lol.

And here we have it...





Completely different car. I'm still getting use to the xlr8 motor mounts. In order to get the true feeling/response from the car, you have to put up with some vibration at idle especially before it warms up. Tho I expected it, it's still a surprise. As for the sound, cruising it kinda sounds like the j30 at WOT. The PCDs didn't cause any rasp. The overall system does have deep throaty sound to it. I guess that's the monster/beast that I heard so much about. I'm also getting a little tinny noise when the rpm is coming down. It sounds like it's coming from flex section on the j-pipe. I'll check it out and may have to let Richie know. I also have to stop by xlr8 performance to go over why my PS motor mount doesn't line up and my OEM fits with no issue. The clutch will also take a little getting use to. It grabs, some of which is due to it being new, but the 6 puck disc will still grab hard. It's also nice to be driving an unassisted manual car again with the check valve removed from the slave cylinder.

Does the tiny little noise sound kind of like a blow off valve? (For lack of a better description).

If so my v2 PCDs did the same thing coming down from above 3k.

Ok then mine was prolly somethin different.   It almost sounded like the back pressure escaping out of the system.

I'll take a closer look at it when we get home and am putting in the grommet.

Once again, excellent work Paul. Thanks for everything, I'll hopefully have the engraving done next week. I have to see if the machine is tied up or not
