Won’t be able to make this one, but I’m definetly going to the World Import Challenge, June 9-10 at the Houston Raceway Park in Baytown. Presented by Sport Compact Car and Turbo magazines, the WIC will also feature a huge car show, with 50 judged categories, and a manufacturers midway. For more info, see the June issue of Turbo, or check out their website at http://www.worldimportchallenge.com. You can watch this weekend’s event on ESPN2 on Sunday, May 27, 11-11:30 a.m. (ET) and Friday, June 1, 5:30-6 p.m. (ET).

DMan, when you get the Greddy exhaust, please let us know how it sounds. I am considering the Cattman Y-pipe/Greddy combo, too.
