damn butt dyno...is it lying? and header install thoughts...

Oh, no, I didn't mean Josh was coming, more that he had a damn fine dyno 
result. I forgot Ben will likley do his again, his other numbers were 
similar and impressive.
And I'm not sure where the 83 is from for Klaus, the owner's manual lists it 
as 76 IIRC. Then take off some for WHP, I'm thinking high 60's is optimistic 
at Klaus' age. But he's still so darn cute, I don't care.
