I fabricated my exhaust for midrange power and torque as opposed to top end, it's more usable. That doesn't mean I have no top end, just that the torque peak comes a bit earlier. I don't think the car is at all hard to be smooth with, drives like a dream and then too, I don't have a throttle booster. I hope we all end up with exactly what we want.
Jim, what did you do that you believe gave mid-range power? I feel as you do that having power where I am most likely to use it is where I concentrate my efforts. Around here 80 is normal on the interstate though I am trying to slow it down, Romans chapter 13. I know when the injectors and tune are in place the car should continue to pull as now I need to let off as the engine approaches 5500rpm. I can feel the nose dive down as it is up under power. These V6 motors have unbalanced exhaust pulses and need an x-pipe of sorts as close to the engine as possible, after that is personal preference. Curious as to what you did. mark
