On the dyno he was wondering why it wasn't making the power it should (new motor, big turbos etc. etc.). Cuts open the exhaust to find remnants of the old blown resonator blocking the exhaust. Luckly he had a used N1 Apex'i there that we threw on the car and went on with tuning.

How beginner is it to forget something IN the exhaust when you weld it up?
