Car is looking good M-Rod. I'll make it back up to Mn for a visit eventually so we will all have to meet up. How does that muffler swap sound?
Thanks SPD_FRK! You should, that would be badass. Even though it sounds like any stock 3G Eclipse GT, I like the sound of the muffler personally. A bit more sporty sounding than the Galant comes with stock, but not ridiculously loud like the old muffler that was on there.

Muffler looks good, would look better if it was polished / flat black with a polished tip. Before I bought my Apexi WS muffler, I had thought about buying the 4G Eclipse Muffler and throwing that one on, but got a steal on the Apexi so went with that.Quote:

All I need now is the trans swap I've been putting off for almost a year. hehe

Thanks man. Cleaning it up a bit is undeniable, but it's somewhat hard to find time to do anything when working 60+ hours in a week.Quote:
