| '04 Dragon: Exhaust Shootout Hello Dragon Slayers! Friday, April 30th, a bit before BabsWife and MINIclo's Great Chili Cookoff, agokart, greatbear, moorlockx, and I are doing an Exhaust Shootout in the two-tier parking lot by the pavillion. The point of the Shootout isn't so much a competition, but more to record audio and video tracks for online comparison for future exhaust shoppers. So far the following are volunteering: Nobull60 – borla street Pilo – UUC Ryephile – Milltek catback Minzila – Milltek catback and Milltek header Koolmini, YuccaPatrol, and Moorlockx – duke it out for Magnaflow Paddy – Borla on Cooper Cometgirl63 – Rspeed on Cooper Mbabischkin – bone stock Cooper agokart – stock Cooper S Normalizer – JCW Reference thread on NAM We're looking for anyone attending that has something other than listed above. Needed: Helix for Cooper Quicksilver, Borla Race, Scorpion, NRP for MCS (and whoever I'm missing!) Cheers, and Motor-On!, Ryan  Last edited by Ryephile; Mar 27th, 2004 at 03:50 AM.  |

 Race I will be at the Fontana with Borla Race on an MCS. Bea and I are also fixing Chili, but it should not interfere. Let me know a time. I guess two level by the pavillion is obvious once you are there. I will find you. Vince |

| I'm looking forward to including links for these in the FAQ on MCS exhausts  The Alta exhaust is one you left off the "needed" list for the MCS  Idle & Rev, Drive By and Inside formats for each would be great  |

| MINIAC - drive by's might be possible, however currently I'm thinking of a standardized revving pattern while stationary. I know that the vehicle sounds different under load, however it's the relativism of each system that is the point of this Shootout. Timing and logistics may get in the way of a full-bore data-logging mission for each exhaust, so the test will have to be relatively quick and convenient. The only interior measurement may be a decibel meter measurement during the standardized revving pattern. So far: Friday afternoon at Fontana Village at the two-tier parking lot by the Pavilion - before the Chili Cookoff Saturday late morning at the Fontana Dam, right after the Dam Picture Cheers, Ryan |

| Now, let's not get all sexist here. I've known some women in my time that could toot a pretty good flute, too!   And, by the way, the powers that be moved the dam picture to Friday morning before the parade on the Dragon. -- '03 S B/W |

| I'm sure the friendly folks that run the Fontana are going to really appreciate the exhaust shootout! I'm booking my cabin at Tapoco in advance for the next few years in case we get banned! Ha Ha Ha! |
