Couldn't be happier
I finally finished (for now ) with the latest upgrades so here is the list.
3200k spring, fuel pin turned 90*, washer shaved down .90, full power screw as far as possible where it will still idle, star wheel 1/2 turn, smoke screw in 1-1/2 tuns and timing bumped 1/8. I had most of it done on the weekend but broke my throttle linkage end off and just received my new one (with metal end's) from my local 5 star dealer. Now I'm just waiting for my 4" jardine exaust which shipped today with a 3 day lead time. I couldn't believe how much more responcive and powerful it felt. Now I just want more. Everyone is right it is very addictive. I still want more but I guess that is to be expected. If anyone has some more sudgested FREE power upgrades, which without spending money my wife will be happy, I would greatly appriciate it. I am planning on using my old 3" dp and making a cross over for the intake and I am also going to do something with the air box. Thanks to all for the great knowlage and helpful advice.

I've been looking at exhaust systems, and I thought that the jardine system had a 3.5" dp that went to 4" after that. I thought that Stan's was the only company that made a true 4" turbo-back system for 1st gens, but I could be wrong. $475 is hard to swallow.

As far as the exhaust I ordered the Jardine exhaust from pinnical performance and when I asked them they told me that it does have a 4" dp. It should by here on monday hopefully and I will let you all now what size the dp is. But if it ain't 4" believe me I will be raising royal because they advertize a 4" turbo back system.

I was one of the first to get Jardine's 4" and the DP on mine was 3.5" to behind the transfer case to make it all fit. Plus the DPs were the same as for a manual which didn't work on the automatic, not enough room . I talked to Jared again last week and they finaly got an auto in there to customize a downpipe. I'm waiting on mine now. Had to cut & weld and ballpeen my original . He didn't say if the new one was 4" but I'd be suprised, its a tight convoluted squeeze to get all that diameter snaked down to the frame rail around the heater, dipstick, bellhousing, frame rail, etc, etc. I can't wait for my new DP to see if it fits better . We started this back last August...
