Lol I don't know yet. I don't even want to talk about it or hear about it until the 03 is sold. I'll feel better about the whole thing and actually be excited once that happens. Until then, shhhh

I drive 16-18 hours to WI from CT every year. You start to get loopy around hour 12.

Lol ... definitely not gonna do that.

But if I can't use that power cuz I'm announcing myself to every cop around, what's the point in even having that power?

Went for a cruise to the Oregon coast to check out the performance of the new Steeda CAI and tune. Beautiful day and the love the boost in hp/torque. Also, just installed GT500 axle backs...sounds great.

My family drove from Minneapolis to Rapid City last summer, and when all was said and done, it took 14 hours. It was terrible.

Sir... I don't mean to be mean, but... given my latest exhaust fiasco's I have gotten REALLY good at detecting exhaust fitment issues by first glance. (Ok, I'm really OCD too, so I notice things.)

With your video above, your driver side tip (compared to the right) seems to be:

a) much more tucked in than the other
b) higher than the other

Hopefully, these are just things you can adjust. The height and left and right movement you can usually account for and adjust for, but the movement front and back is usually not possible.

I hope for your sake (and for Borla's sake), that my visual observations of your exhaust fitment issues are purely due to the picture and video.

And ... I'm back to GT500 mufflers. Not as loud as I was hoping for, especially after spending the morning romping on the car with the Borla S-Types still installed, but much quieter and no longer advertising that I'm coming from a mile away.

No you are right. Its tucked a little more. I didnt feel like adjusting the OA pipes yet. Im not too worried about it at all. I bought theae used for 250 bucks, threw them on in 20 minutes and went romping around.

I was planning on giving the green machine a detail after work and working out, but I had to stay a little late at work today. So, that kills that. lol
Figures, huh?!? Tomorrow's another day though.

Oh yeah bro. I'm like you,.....I NEVER miss a workout. If I do,..I get really pissed off and it's done the next day.
No lawn cutting yet. That's coming soon. The lawn is looking really green and thick and full. I have some spots where it's bare. I'll put down some grass seed/starter fertilizer mixture and it'll take off.
Enjoy the new highway. That's gonna be a blast.
