Not sure what the plan is for my visit. :):) Will just hang around with the boys I think? :) I would love to come up that way, not sure if I can though? Will have to see what my driver says. :p:p

    Thanks. exotic lover.

    The car passed emmissions testing today with flying colors!!!!. I can register it now. I was thinking personalized plates. Something like:
    BJ'S 4RE
    BJ'S 348
    BJ'S TS
    92 348
    Any other ideas? I get seven letters and spaces here in Cali.

    Chris has X-ost. Sounds sweet. I want to park next to him to do a Tubi vs. X-ost comparison. Hey, we should put a stock 348 next to us. And maybe a no cat car too. My camara can do video. Each car should pull off to redline also. This sounds like a fun science project. I'll ask my daughter if she is interested. Garaunteed A+.

    Somewhere between 0-2 hp.

    Mufflers don't help HP, cats do. Anyone who tells you otherwise is full of it.

    Yes, that's nice to see. I still won't advertise or claim any HP gains through a muffler alone.

    I really don't want to start a pissing contest here (which will ensue anyway, these days), but there are some pretty substantial variables in the dyno testing which can account for the variation:

    * 3 month lagtime and "who knows what" on the rollers between those dates
    * environmental changes (was that fan blowing on both Dec and March runs?)
    * different fuel loads
    * etc. etc.

    When we sent yours down to Mt. Isa, it was purely a exercise in fantastic sound, great looks, and weight savings. Yes, the X-OST sounds simply awesome on the 348. I'm a believer, and have no vested interest in bashing a product that I love!

    Really, I don't want to start anything here... but to sell mufflers under the banner of HP gains is simply not truthful IMVHO.

    I got BJ'S 4RE , but it takes 8-12 weeks, so I got a regular plate in the meantime. The regular plate has 365 in it. When I explained to the DMV lady what BJS 4RE meant, she thought it was too cool, and came out to see the car. She had to tell all the other workers about the Ferrari outside. Owning this car is so cool.
