i hope so. and well, it turns out that when im idling, the muffler vibrates against the rear bumper sometimes. and i called the shop about it, and they told me to drill a hole and tie the area of the bumper that hits. it like makes the bumper bend up a lil so it wont hit against the muffler.. guess i got a DIY project this weekend

yes you need them.. cat=catalitic converter (sp?) and the O2 (oxygen) censory plugs into the cat.. if the O2 censor isnt workin properly, your ECU thinks that your not gettin enough fuel, so the fuel map goes haywire. and leadin the engine to run too rich..

Big news for bobby Ok, so today, I go into work an hour early. Tired as heck and doped up on allergy medicine, I pull up to the job site. No paying attention to what I am doing.....scrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrraaaaaaatch! ....smoked my front passenger side rims and tire against a curb. The damage is not noticable really but the rim lip got all fooked up and my tire has a couple of chuncks missing and a tear. Ok, so now I am pisssssssed off. But then the day gets better. I take my front struts in to get the springs out from the 90 HB. They take them out and charge me nothing. Then the owner of the shops son, Kevin call up his brother inlaw who owns a belle tire. I go to the belle tire and talk to this guy. I leave the belle tire purchasing 4 17" quantum tek s10's with copper cobra tires out the door for $930 and that includes lugs, installation, balancing, and the road hazard for the tires Then I get home and my cousin and my friend Dave come over and I make them help me finish lowering the front of my car....which Edgar did all the work for the back and front I just put the fronts together. Now my hatch is sitting loooooow even scraped my parents drive way So Saturday I am going to get my 17's put on and my 16's are going on the hatch. ohhhh yeah!

Platnum: I will get pics up Saturday. My cam is at home and charging right now And I thought you were dead or something. Have not seen you post whoring on xceedspeed in a while. Glad you are still breathing dude

Scott: I will eventually get the teins I think or the B&G's but I don't have the cash right now an probably won't until next year since I just bought wheels and tires.

There is a crappy pic of my hatch back in my member's ride section

i just called back the muffler shop and Joe is getting back in sometime this afternoon, so im ganna call them back. hopefully i can get my catalitic converter back on.. but man, im running so rich. i drove about 70miles yesterday, and i had my tank at half when i started.. by the time i got back home, my gas is down to a lil under a quarter tank this sucks..

so unless they have my stock cat still there, im ganna have them buy the HP highflow cat for 120$ and install it..

look at summit racing.....you can get a catco cat for less than that i think. cause i am sure they will just give you a universal cat and not one made for the car since they already hacked it anyway.

you won't find a high flow cat anywhere for our cars.....even the new improved hp racing header gives an engine code, because the o2 is bonk. ULEV SUCKS..................plus our rides are obd 3

With the universal cat you just put the sensor behind it so it is reading the clean air.
