Driveability is good now. Very docile around town but it is a monster when you open the secondaries. I did consider it. Maybe down the line.

As for your earlier question, the exhaust story is to come.

Purists be damned and all... but I have to say that I'm glad you kept it an Olds!! I went thru the same deal with the LSx vs Poncho mill in my car... GREAT project Rob!!! And the only reason I'm still getting PHR!

I know that Ridetech put a GoPro on my car during autocross as well as Larry Callahan. I don't have one yet. If anyone caught me, please feel free to post. Maybe I can get something in a couple weeks. I'm taking it to Motorstate Challenge

Photo from the Autocross at Street Car Faceoff at Elkhart Lake this past May. If you haven't gone and participated in one of these events, your missing out. I went to cover it and test out the Olds. It was a great time and fun experience. Here is a pic of Project Olds on the autocross. Thanks to Henry D for capturing this shot...

It was good to meet you the other day. Fun times.

Project Olds looks awesome. The wheels set it off perfectly.

Project Olds was at the Motorstate Challenge, we took first in autocross for under 200 TW tire. Here is a vid of it on the autocross. I did get a little hot in the first turn.
