Thanks for the info; that's what I needed to hear. I planned on doing it the longer way from the start because can't afford to screw up.

I look forward to seeing those dyno and track numbers.

I just saw your video... lolz... good thing its running! Sounds like a rough idle for sure...

You should hear my car, completely the opposite... there is a problem and I can't figure this **** out as to what's wrong with it... and its not a blocked/clogged muffler & the cat is still in place and apparently not blocked.

I've been told it can be advanced timing & to have my tune checked but my car was running amazing for the past year... wtf eh?
