So I have about 1300 miles on the engine I have been driving it to work 3 times a week. But I'm adding miles in very small chunks I need to do a road trip. Jake wants aprox. 2000 miles on her before we dive in and do some voodoo tuning. I'm hoping to turn her over to Jake in the August/September time frame to do the tuning.
It has been hot here in GA. with most days in the 93 - 97 degree range. Car starts/runs/idles darn near perfect. She restarts after a 10 - 15 minute heat soak with no problems. I really have zero complaints about the build/install. If I can get the GHL muffler tuned to lower or eliminate the resonance it will be perfect . I still get a smile a mile wide when doing full throttle passes she just pulls so hard and revs so quick. I've only burned a half a quart of oil to date which I'm also impressed with . It's all good !

I just installed this...

.....on my 2004 S, 3.2, stock engine, with stock headers and cats:

...And it is PERFECT.

No drone, yet sounds like a cup car when hard on the throttle.

With your mods, it might sound louder, but I think it will fix the drone problem.

Good luck!
