You da man Eric, the muffler turned out friggin perfect, and holy crap is the motor in there solid now with those hanger mounts :thumbs:

I'm glad I took off like a ricer that vid is sweet! The whole ride home was awesome, it sounds awesome, and I have a lot more confidence now when I drive it a bit more "aggressively" :mrgreen:

here's some pics of the mounts...very simple and very effective:

I drove almost 200 miles in the ninja mobile today. The idle still needs some more sorting out but other then that it's running great, took the heat like a boss, and I must have gotten 35mpg maybe moar w:pw. Got lots of quality laptop tuning time in, the tune is getting better and better. The biggest issue right now is the lack of rear shocks and stupid low ride height in the rear, hopefully my bolts will come in tuesday.

I came home to a really sweet package. A couple of days ago I won a bid on gaybay for a 04 gixxer wiring harness...$27 :dance: . Not only did I score all the pigtails that I need for my individual throttle body experiment, but it came with a full set of coil packs, a really nice starter relay, and a idle control valve. Mmmm my ninja sense tells me that I might be able to use all those goodies...friggin score!

thanks buddy :beer:

I hooked the crankcase evap up, Eric welded on the fittings when he did the muffler up, and yes it does work awesome :thumbs:

I spent so time and dialed in the idle better now that I don't have tons of back pressure, its a lot better already but I think I have a sticking injector or they don't like short pulsewidth's. More reason to get the ITB setup finished :dance:
