RE: super trap
I agree, Trapps are best left for competition. I have built 2 1/2 inch
systems for people using straight through Race Flowmasters. When used on
water cooled VW's an Chrysler 2.2's it makes good power and though a bit
noisy but not as noisy as the Trapps.

ATZno i never put one on my car, mainly because of what i learned about it
ATZand i've heard a few cars with them and never liked the sound. then
ATZagain, i only drive on the street. these would be great for race and
ATZauto-xing where you can add shims to race and them remove to get back on
ATZthe street. i am still going to say this: for street applications i
ATZwould not want the trapp. for the same amount (a little more) you can
ATZget a nice TT system with more than enough flow that would sound quieter
ATZthan the trapp.... i think it all comes down to personal preference (of
ATZcourse, what doesn't...).
