[QUOTE="CobraBob, post: 16158843, member: 6727"] Jeff, I was privileged to get a very inside look at Callaway back in the mid-late '90s. I was friends with their Sales Manager and had many conversations with their Lead Engineer. Got to chat with Reeves, too, multiple times. I got to see their skills in engineering/packaging, and I also got to see that they were human. I bought one of their motors, upgraded to another, and then had that one replaced/upgraded because the second motor failed on the freeway. I wasn't racing or even driving hard. Their Engineer felt so bad about my engine issues (I had questioned their dyno report prior to the engine failing) that after they replaced it he installed their one and only stainless steel prototype catback. They never put it to manufacturing because it would have had to retail for around $3K. Yep, $3K. The engineering of this catback was unique and revolutionary at the time. Darn near zero back-pressure but the sound wasn't really loud or harsh. Best catback I've ever used. [/QUOTE]
