Welcome to SolaraGuy!

The ride sounds nice. V6 and 5-speed, Hmm! :D
Look forward to pictures.

(Folks, no need to mention the CAPS LOCK any more. I think the message was received.)

New to the board. I have a 05 SE Sport Pearl white, w/18" Boss black chrome wheels wrapped w/Nitto Nt555, TRD sport Muffler, Eibach springs, Injen Intake, black pearl tags, Alpine W205 7" screen, nav, Focal fronts and tweets, custom 12" JL sub with 500/1 amp doors and trunk all Dyna'd. ( sounds incredible) Looking for someone to build custom exhaust and headers. (Help) just found this site and have to say some of the nicest looking Solara's I have seen. Pics soon have to figure out how.

Welcome red2ksolara and MattyGarbage! :D

Matty, if your looking for custom headers and exhaust check out this thread:

http://www.solaraguy.org/viewtopic.php?t=32382&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=headers&start=345

PXLpainter wrote:Well, there's good news & bad news.

The bad news is, we still don't have the solid dyno numbers yet (before/after curves) nor have I had a chance to take it to a local strip for 1/4 mile times.

The good news is, it's basically all done. ;)

I'm going to go back to Split Second one more time and have them tweak the box yet again. It's been throwing arbitrary CELs occasionally - for like a day then they go away. While the CEL is on, performance doesn't change at all - only that it burns a little richer at startup and you can smell the diff - plus it idles a little lower. In my ride, it also disables traction and skid controls. I don't know what causes it or why those are disabled too. All I know is that I have gotten 1st, 2nd to 3rd gear burnouts on dry pavement when it's cooler outside. Might be my semi-bald tires too. :D

So - bottom line is this right now...

The "Group Buy" is officially dead - no way we're going to get 10+ people to jump on these any time soon. So I've mentioned this to Jose and JP Performance should still honor their GB pricing to individuals though, and you will need a Split Second tuned box (approx $200 pre-tuned for CP-e) for best performance - though we've not tried it with an Injen SRI yet, so maybe its not needed.

It would be good to start contacting JP Performance with inquiries anyway to show him that there's interest and see what feedback you hear from them. Here's their contact info:

Phone: (714)754-6977
Email: jpperformance@sbcglobal.net

Once we have this all wrapped-up, I'm going to close this thread and start a new one with only the final info on it - where to buy/price/etc. In the mean-time, please post your info/responses to what they tell you at JP Performance, as well as continued questions, etc. here.

Here's a few pics of the finished product:

Thanks for the info. I ordered the Y-pipe and Headers from Jose (JP Performance) last Saturday. I am working with a local tuning shop that does amazing work. They told me they would give me before and after charts (Dyno). Here is a couple pics of my "Storm trooper"
