Hi Ed.

I hope you've been doing well. Sorry I missed you message. I'm using the Dynomax Ultra Flo mufflers in 2 & 1/4 inch. Can't wait to hear them under throttle one of these days!

Hello all. Well... The Concord was tuned last week. The throttle spring is way too stiff and needs to be drastically changed. And although it made great power on the Dyno... It's still pushing out way too much carbon. Sometimes it stumbles and hesitates when the pedal is pressed down too fast as well. So I think it could be even better still but regardless... It made really great power. Here's the Dyno sheet... and some glamour shots... All in all... I pretty happy with the results so far.

Thank you. I get a lot of compliments on the deep maroon color. Most people call metallic Cherry red... It's a stand out color. I've only driven it a few times over the past few days and people have been waving at me a lot already. It definitely feels good. The easily forgotten Concord still gets some love in Kenosha!
