well.. when i was turning right into my old apartments i was braking hard and a second before turning i head a loud crack and see black pieces flying everywhere so i'm liek hey that looked like my grille lol. So i park, get out of the car, go in front of it and BAM, 1 piece is missing im like goddamit. And i think i was really pissed that day, plus that that was not the first time that thing was trying to pop off and not hold, so i got so mad at it i tore the other one off, stomped it and threw it away. So now i need new ones lol.

we bough our house like 4 months ago and the price already rose 15 grand. But they are building a hospital 4 minutes away.

But for all of you who wanted to see my exhaust i took night pics, will post them in about 1-2 hours.

looks good. I see you aligned the exhaust a little better. Looks good that way. I really want the Megan catback now.

actually i didnt align anything. i guess it got tired itself to hit the hole so it lined itself up

nice clean g . - - catback sounds great from what i can hear.! - did u notice any difference before and after installation w/ the megan catback system? -

lKoRTy
01-26-2007, 06:47 PM
um yeah, the very first difference i noticed is that now i have a shiny exhaust...
um... but yeah, it allowed more stuff to come out so i stopped getting a cel i would get sometiems with my cai becaus eit would get too much air in and nowhere to get out. So a little power gain obviously.
plus jumped from 20 mpg to 24.

regularly, a cat-back can get you as much as a 15hp gain give or take. all depends on how the pipe is routed or bended, or how big the pipe is.
