Well, I am going with my buddy from Monroe and he wants to go really early to fight traffic and the crowds. I will let you know if he calls and tells me other wise.

Hey all! Just sitting here getting excited about the Autorama tomorrow!!!! 
I think I found the "right" house finally too. Hopefully I will make them an offer next week on it. It is nothing big and fancy but it is nice. It has a 1.5 car garage which is awesome cause we don't have one now at all!!!!!! Wish me luck please!

For those of you that did not make Autorama.....IT SUCKED.....it was the worst car show ever so be glad you missed it. I will get some pics, I did not take many, and soon as I get them developed.
I am really antsy for the weather to break and to start hanging this spring/summer now! I drove by Elizabeth park this weekend. I really think Stylin had a great idea about meeting up there. Where else can we hang or cruise? Anyone cruise Gratiot? If so, how is it? How about woodward? Is Woodward a crusin' spot or just a place to hang at Murray's? Well, just somethings I was wondering. Take it easy.
Also, where did the Detroit people AIM thread go?

That's terrible that Autorama wasn't as much as it should have been...Up north was great...Fresh snow...Lots of beer was drunk...and the best part is that I was one of the first up there...so I claimed the master suite w/the hot tub...oh yes!!! Turned it into our own Turkish Sauna Parlor....
I could really tell some funny stories but I'll save them for discussion this spring on when we're chillin...girls were decent...too much drama...!!! if you know what I mean....I just enjoyed myself!!

I'm glad i didnt go. I heard there was only like 8 imports. anyways, one good reason to goto street dreams 2, import models. spoke to the promoters and they said lots of models coming in. not local ones, but the ones you see in the mags.

I know what you mean....I was engaged to a girl from Farminton Hills that I was with for 3 years, then she broke off the engagement and left. I have not seen her since. It hurts and to tell the truth, I am scared to even try another relationship. Oh well, life goes on. Maybe I can pick up one of those import models? [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

ok thanks...I'm sure I've already talked to him...I just gotta decide what exhaust to go with...
Which ones have u guys put on???...I don't want something that will make that much noise...Only make some noise if I get it over 4K RPM if u know what I mean....Any suggestions?
Also...did u guys get larger piping from the cat back put in...or did u get a full cat-back system???
L8r guyz...Mark

Hey Platnum, I got a Magnaflow Cat back on mine and love it. It is nice a quiet at low RPM's and a little louder at the higher ones. It also has a nice deep throaty rumble and never gets that go-kart sound going on. I have pics of it in my member's ride section.

The exhaust was 300 bucks shipped from the magnaflow group buy.....i think there is another going on now too. midas charged me 65 bucks to install it. and yes, i can feel difference, works great with my cheap 50 dollar e-bay intake too!
as of right now, no more mods for me. id rather save up and get the k20. its only been 9 months and im close to 17k on the odometer. so my warranty might go out by this coming december. then i'll probably throw in nitrous to blow up the motor so i won't feel bad about swaping in the k20. as of now, its just saving money and doing research. and hoping by next winter, some fool wrecks his car so i can get a motor.
