i drive mine about 300miles a week no joke lol and i have the spohn drag bar with the solid links and chris has the same as me.
Holy hell sir you must have more stones than me
Even test driving customers cars we do stuff like that in I cant stand it for 10 minutes Maybe I hear racket too much during the day but I like plain ole, these cars make enough noise so its stock catback, poly bushings, and radio up for me! The worst is my rearend though, after a few years of leaving at 7k+ it sings out loud a bit.
How does it drive? You can drive a lot 300 miles a week it doesn't mean it does it comfortably..
We have guys that drive their dailys open headers around here, makes you go I give customers a hard time when their lid/filter 13 second car is louder than my junker

It's not how fast you are, its how fast people think you are JK. I am however about to get a taste of "my bark being louder than my bite" b/c I'm installing TSP duals and LT's this weekend. Gonna scream for a 12 second cruiser ..

Mine drives really smooth no difference over stock on the street, it feels a hair stiffer in the corners, but I get absolutely no noise from it not sure what you guys are experiencing, I have the spohn rear drag with spherical rod ends, it is just bolted in place no welding yet, although they recommend it for the top brackets on each side…I have a Midwest chassis body mount tq arm with the same spherical rod ends except for in the front were it mounts to a poly and then to the body…only noise I have in my car now is from the spooled 12 bolt, which can get annoying going over 65mph on the highway

Studderin, next time you go add 1 lb of air to the rear tires, and you need a drag bar on the car.
Get drag bar on so it leaves strait, and another lb so the car won't quite bog as much at the launch and you're going to find a happy surprise when you pick up the first time slip after making those 2 changes.

mines hell at 65-70 has a noisy "place". So I drive 75, so I can hear people onthe sell fone and whatnot
thanks guys,
ya I'll probably get a drag bar this winter, you still think its not going strait tho? this is a M6 car, but still I was thinking its going so much straighter now with the spool. I was thinking it was fine. Going fastest would be great. I just noticed how slow Im shifting in the 10.66's passes. with the 2step higher then the shiftlight, it doesn't just WOT shift like it dose. I think thats why I missed 3rd just 3-4 times in a row, it stopped at neutral, so I had to shift slow. Not as fun
The gtp, I put back to stock.. well 95% and sold it to a younger guy in buffalo that was going to mod it a little again

Believe me you get a drag bar on the car, get some more weight out of the nose (PM me) and up the air pressure 1 lb and it's going to make a big difference.
so what was done to the gtp when you put those times up? must of been a fun sedan

I ran my wolfe swaybar on the street, it wasn't bad. Only problem/thing to watch out for, is the tabs that they supply to weld to the chassis are a little thin, it would be a really good idea when you get the bar, to have some made otu of 1/8th inch thick steel, or box them together or something. I have had mine bend on me, but that's after 100's of hard launches at the track too... not street use.
