New Dynomax VT Exhaust
Here is the icing on the cake. I went to the Mopar day at Cayuga and ran the car on Sunday. We had a pretty serious tail wind, exactly the same conditions as when I posted my previous best time of 11.53. That day the car ran about 117 mph all day with a best of 118.59. On Sunday even though I had traction issues all day, and only ran a best of 11.75, the car ran 118.32, 118.92 and 119.5 mph. I figure I picked up a solid 1 to 1.5 mph with the new system. Keep in mind the headers and exhaust system were the same pipe diameters as before. The secret to the VT mufflers is the valve that stays mostly closed during cruise and opens when you get into it. I always race through full exhaust, so this is the best of both worlds for me.
