The cat-back is on...Sounds very nice...but it seems to me that its rumbles from like 3000 rpm to 4500 then somehow seems quiter if I push it harder...But I am happy...Top end on the freeway was better for sure...I'm just gettin used to it...

Adios...Mark

I do know that after about a month the sound gets even better. Maybe try e-mailing Magnaflow or take it to a good muffler shop. I would do that. Good luck, let me know how it goes.

Here is an article about local street racing that you might want to read.

Yes, I got the article on XCEEDSPEED somewhere.

Well, I just spent 300 bones on paint supplies at Lowes for the house. Think I bought a tad too much paint but oh well. Better safe than sorry.

Tomorrow will be the fun sanding day at the house. Then Saturday will be the all time favorite painting day! lol I hate painting but like the patching and sanding for some reason. I guess it is cause it is like Bondo!

I am not sure if I am going or not. I might bum around Wyandotte. I want to go to a guy at works house and see his new detailing buffers. Oh and the new Porshe he is detailing I will decide after I see if anyone else is going. By the sounds of it, the cops might be hitting the Redline show this week so I might be better off at home.

Just got back from 50's McDonalds on Telegraph and Murray's on Woodward. The McDonalds rocked as always!! I was not to crazy over the Redline guys though. The XCEEDSPEED guys were really cool and I met Kev and a few others and I also met Ravex from this forum there. The Redline guys seem to snoby for me and they are in there own little world. It was still cool meeting the guys though. I think I might do the Redline meet once in a while and hit the McDonalds every Friday.

Yeah, Happy Birthday xhotekx!!

Stylin, go ahead and get them powder coated. I was just wondering what you were asking for them for a cousin but he already got some he said. Thanks though.

Well, I will talk to you all later.

I drove through Bishop Park at about 7:30 on the way home from my buddies house but it sucked, same ole bunch of rejects. I think that once Elizabeth Park's entrance gets cleaned up then that will be a better place to go. Since it is so big you can just pic a spot away from the tards and hang.

yea, i think the same too. im tempted to go into elizabeth, but its all that dirt road.. it even sucks goin into the A&W's. we blew out my friends car's front right shock at that intersection goin to A&W's. it sucked, but i couldnt help laughin at him. it was too funny. i told him "dude, slow down, its real bumpy" and hes like "nah, its fine.." so he goes over it going 35.. BOOM! "oh sh*t..." oh man, the facial expression he had when it happened was great
