Him running the stock map makes since, although, who would do that?

So, how do you like your TXS kit? Do you have the exhaust too?

Hows the sound, speed?

Sounds like you have a nice rex.

I love the Stage II kit. I have the turboback with a Prodrive rear section muffler, Perrin catless uppie and Samco IC hoses. Sound, well, you can ask JohnnyS2K It's got a very mean/growly exhaust tone. I'm going to videotape it tonight and put it up.
Speed, well, I think it can hit mid to low 13s. Accelaration is neck braking (specially from a stop)

Sorry the file is so big (13M). These were just some drive-bys so I could hear the exhaust from outside the car. There was no racing the S2K though

Please right click and Save As...

Hmm, for some reason I saw no video, only sound. From what I could hear, sounds nice. Where you racing something? Was it that grad prix? Sounded a little ricey for such a big car.

Hmm, not sure why you can't see video. It's on standard wmv format.

hmm thats wierd, because in the video it sounded like there was another car next to you at some point. You hear the nice deeper tone of your car, and then all the sudden it sounded like some rice rocket was going at the same nice as yours.

Well, I listened again, and I feel stupid.

There was a lot of wind so I couldn't tell the first time. So I am assuming you have some kind of intake and that is what the other sound is.

Still couldn't see the video.

Sorry,
I should've said the video was taken from my friend's S2K. That's the intake you hear. And I hope my car doesn't sound like a rice rocket

I encoded it using DivX this time. It's a bit larger file, but maybe you can see it now.

Your car does NOT sound like a rice rocket, it sounds damn good imo. Then yeah that is the intake I herd, hope I don't get flamed for saying the sound I herd sounded like rice to me.
