today with nicolas (yes again  Grin Grin) , we've put back the engine in the 61 and the exhaust doesn't fit with the normal 4/1 exhaust , as i've bought an merged some month ago , we've decided to put the merged on the engine , like that with can fit the berg exhaust on  , and we've done some fine tune again , and what a moment for me to heard again the fantastic sound of a real dual quiet pack , ,now the exhaust is on the car and it look really cool , now my car really looks like what I wanted  Shocked Shocked

Hey Fabs.

Your car looks really nice with the Dual QP´s. I´ve seen pics off it since before it was ready for the streets and think you have got it right on.
Only the future will tell where you stop. It´s a good looking car already, but changes all the time. Just like mine Grin
