Killer sleeper Claude! I'd like to have your $$$$$$. Anyway, what are you doing for exhaust? Tranny?

See you at the NEBRA BBQ---I hope!

Brian, the exhaust was already there on my car ("GN1 Performance" dual 3" s.s) but Brian (Cotton) fabricated a custom 4" downpipe from the turbo, under the car, all the way to the flange where the dual system starts and goes to the rear of the car.
As for the tranny, believe it or not, but it's still the original 200-4R that was "beefed up" by our late friend Eric Schertz (Dynotech). At the time he built it several years ago, it did cost a bundle for the "bullet-proof" parts, electric trans-brake, but it NEVER gave up on me. I guess it's appropirate to say that "You get what you pay for"...After two years of use, Eric took it apart to inspect it, and found NOTHING not normal...so he just refreshened it up, and it's been on the car ever since. (Thanks Eric!...)
Also, my girlfriend Claude and I have already begun making plans this afternoon to be there (NEBRA BBQ) next weekend, as soon as I finished speaking with Jack who just told me the great news that my car was finally done!! Yippee! Thanks A LOT Jack, and see you there!

Claude & Claude.

Looking forward to seeing you guys!

I do feel sorry for that little 200 though. I'd be making plans for a 400 ASAP
