Just did overpipe (DC) and test pipe (Megan racing). Man it was a huge pain to get that overpipe out. With some ingenuity we were able to get the old out and the new one in without pulling the headers. The trick was using a trans jack/hold to push the engine up about 5mm, to allow space to slide it out. Definitely sounds more deeper and not a much of a increase in overall sound, unless your really getting on it.

No rain, please. Or if it does, it better downpour. I'm tired of washing my car

I park in my driveway with no cover. Weekly spray off sessions are the only way to keep things even remotely clean-ish.

Not sure if I am allowed to do this but: I have a set of gramlight 57xtreme in sunlight silver for sale. I'm located in the Austin area. And figured you local guys should get first dibs.

It was tough driving behind you in our group. I couldn't hear my radio over the sound of all your tape flapping!
