A fake idea to get in to the titty bars?

Speaking of which, one less illegal alien on the streets today.

So what's up with this weather? ****!!!! I just want it to be decent. Even the locals are complaining.

I got a new ride today. It's a new Chevy Impala. No more Chevy Blazer...

The bad thing about that snow is that it will keep the ground cooler and the area colder. It's that much more snow that has to melt by Spring.

The Impala is nice and comfy. It's got a huge trunk, and there's a lot of room inside the cabin.

I hope the temps get warmer than that and keeps getting warmer.

Huge trunk. You know what that means, right?

Some unlucky girl is coming home with Dave

Big enough for a body to fit...

Dudes, I need help deciding on the y-pipe. I'm about to purchase the Intense Power one, but some people say it's crap. I'd like to buy a used JIC, but no one is selling them.

What do you think?

Are you still waiting for that exhaust from the one guy? Or are you just gonna purchase these things ahead of time?

There's the Megan y-pipe.

You can maybe grab the Topspeed one off eBay?



I REALLY like the design of the JIC.

I forget the price on the Motordyne y-pipe, but I guess the gains from it are pretty damn good.

I'm still waiting for that guy with the exhaust. Did he get back to you?

I've heard bad things about Megan. I thought Topspeed and Megan were the same.

For the most part, I think all of them are pretty even.

No word from him.

I've heard some bad things about Megan as well, except for their brakes. I guess their brakes are actually really good performers.

I wasn't aware that Topspeed was related to Megan, sorry man.

I'm still looking around for you. The Ichiba y-pipe can be had for ~$200 if it's in stock if that's what you want.

Yeah, I would love to have an Ichiba if there were any around. I'm looking, too.

Don't tempt me. Right now, I'd have to have the car towed if I wanted custom exhaust work done.

Since you guys are on the exhaust topic, what do you guys recommend for HFC's or TP's?? I was looking into Berk's for either or. Any recommendations? I want the CEL fix integrated and maybe an extra bung for AFR wideband gauge and I don't want all of the raspt (i am running Bassani TD Cat Back). I guess the Berks have all of what I need, but is anyone running them with a true dual setup close to Bassani? If so, what did it do for power/noise?
