Man, I was giggling like, well, a little girl. I was, in fact, giggling more than my daughter. The 3" summit duals through race mufflers reflecting off of the wall down the straightway was indescribable. There was a convertible hemi Super Bee(?) with a 5 speed who had cutouts, and it was sounding good running beside him, we passed each other a couple of times, sounded awesome!
Running up on the bank, at 40 mph, felt like you would slide off. Later, after the pace car retreated to the its, we got some 70+mph runs, and you barely turned the wheel on the banked turns. Wish my car had 2.73's instead of the 3.73's! I did get to 110 on the straightaway, and clipped the shift light.

Oh, and thanks for the compliment, I am very pleased with the car!
I ran at the strip with the 3" in place of the old 2.5>2.25" exhaust, and have a best time thus far of 12.26, which includes the 3/8" fuels line upgrade from 5/16". Previous best time, with open headers, was 12.38. However, I have not run it at the strip, same day, with both open and closed headers, to get a comparison. I would surmize that the 3" is very close to open headers in performance, and sounds great, even if it is a little loud.
