It's here............
It has been a long weekend. More information soon after we get some rest.
Feedback
More feedback to come after I drive it some more.
Just taking the numbers for our dyno charts, here are the gains we saw after installing the kit. The most important thing here is that all three of us got
consistent gains. It goes a long way to show the manufacturing prowess of Vortech and the tuning abilities of Perrin! Installation was consistent too. The parts, fitment, etc was pretty consistent across all three vehicles.

Launch control. He didn't go super quick cause we didn't know what was going on at the other end of the lot. The Perrin unresonated/uncatted headerback is bloody loud.
I stood next to Chris's car datalogging while he was doing dyno pulls. I think i lost a few points of hearing
