    Yea im gonna wrap the y-pipe first thing in the morning,now that i got time.well see how it does with the wrap first.i mean yea ,ill do 1-2 runs on a backroad,and it climbs from 170-226 the highest i seen it.i dont really feel it slipping.but with the 3.23 gears hitting 105 at the end of second gear,i bet thats what it is,that 2nd gear is taking a beating lol,,ive already had the 2nd gear go out once with the 4.8/blower....i need to get them 4.11s in already.
