That is me in a Kroger parking lot. Listen to the sound of the car when I start it up, that deep roar.

From what? The dinan intake doesn't sound like that.

[triggrhaapi]

no but my "muffler shop exhaust" doesn't actually have a muffler, it's just a can. Neither does my gutted stocker exhaust...

Ha, nice. I'm seriously considering UUC type U catback now... that'd make a huge difference in my sound.

How do you just REMOVE a pipe? Doesn't something need to go in place of it?

i think my car sounds better, but your car looks nice there komodo, i like the height of those springs.

Nah, it was in a parking lot with other people, and these are fairly new tires. We were just gonna take pics of the lowering, but we decided to video instead to show the sound.

I got a new Borla X-Pipe that goes from my headers straight to my catback exhaust. The x-pipe replaces the pipe with the cat that used to be there. Basically it just replaces the factory pipe with one better designed for flow, and replaces the cat. converter. Does that make sense? lol. The factory pipe had a cat attached to it. I replaced the factory pipe with this one without a cat, that was better designed. There.

I still regret not getting a manual. =/

Though I question the quality and reliability of a transmission conversion.

my e30 was perfectly reliable and i swapped for $500 i bought it auto cause it was low mileage and perfectly taken care of
