If anyone is looking for 2.5" stock lnf (SS turbo) exhaust I have one for sale.
Will need to get a different flange for a non Lnf model but should work for all models. It is an improvement in size and flow of all non Lnf exhaust models and has the ss Crome tip.
It is currently in three pieces and will need to be welded or clamped together upon installation. Pm me if intrested. Just looking for local sale.

Mike has first dibs if he's still interested.

The tree across the street from my GF's place landed on a old dodge ram. And at my parents a big branch broke of a tall tree and land about about 20 ft from my car not to close but enough to make me **** my pants while it was falling. LOL.

What a day... Mike comes over to log and still has the trifecta tune in his car so we unfortunatley couldn't log. We go and log my car. I did 3 logs last night, afr was almost perfect. This morning logging my car is running super rich. WTF? James keeps pulling timing out of my car up top and yet it still keeps knocking. He tells me to ditch the cat. It's holding me back up top. Screw it, let's do it. Pull my downpipe off and my cat is completely fucked! Apparently meth eats away at it haha. It took me 2 damn hours to bash the cat out. What a nightmare... In a rush to drop the car and see how it sounds, jack the car up, pull the stand out and slide it out of the way, drop the car, look back... I didn't move the jack out of the way far enough and it was jammed into my side skirt! I almost cried . I now have to either replace it or pull off the side skirt and try to push the dent out in it now. Go and drive my car, sounds good catless! The ZZP resonator is saving my ass lol. But now my afr was lean again, then rich the next pull. Something is going on with my meth. The check valve must be sticking closed sometimes. Soooo I gotta order a new check valve. But I just came back from a log with the meth working as it should. NO KNOCK. Was pretty happy about that!

/ Rant. I need a beer.

I got the downpipe on. First mod down.

Think I got it on there good. No leaks. Just a small rattle when starting in first sometimes.

No drone love the no lift shift pop.

Use an electric solenoid and a boost pressure switch to trigger it. Not a check valve. It will leak no matter what. Solenoid can be bought from princess auto.

Dustin!!!

Dude that sucks!!

Did I understand that right - the rocker got bent? ~ or is the damage isolated to the skirt (plastic attaching to the rocker)

I actually came here to post for you and Mike to maybe post a comment or three ~ or make your own review.

Lol Kevin I love how you just chime in ramdomly on just things I say haha. But yes a solenoid is the way to go.

Just the plastic skirt got damaged not the rocker. James looked at the log I just did and said the cat was the issue for my afr and knock not the meth.

not to downplay things - but that's great!! ~ compared to rocker damage, that's about as small fries as it gets...

you never know, maybe you can find one colour matched and in great shape on an SS/2.4 or even a Pursuit/G5-GT!?

Wow this is the worst and best day ever for you.
At least the side skirt options are many. Vs say a high rise haha.
That really sucks. Everytime you get in a rush to go for a drive you forget stuff. Like say a locking wheel nut...
