SilverStreak returns to the streets.

Well boys... (and girls I suppose)

I picked her up from the body shop this morning... and wow is all I have to say. I feel like I have a brand new car again. The rear bumper & lip are mounted up perfectly, & they even remembered the small rear grille inserts that all the dealerships seem to forget to order.

I was expecting her to be covered in grime and grease... but the guys at the shop gave her a full wash and even waxed the new parts. I honestly think that she looked better this morning than when she was brand new.

Back on topic here... I had the GMPP exhaust manifold and Performance cat-back installed since the collission damaged my stock exhaust. What a difference! The sound is a lot deeper than I expected... sounds wonderful at idle and under throttle... plenty loud too. Just wait till the next sucker in a primered civic tries revving his fart can at me. She can bark back now!

Heheh... just a little excited... the power delivery is much smoother than I remember it being... perhaps a result of the small hp/tq gains from the freer flowing exhaust.

Anyways.... just wanted to share with everyone. Time to go raise some hell this weekend!

Congrats man.

I have the GMPP Performance CB as well (granted I ahve a 2.2). I love it. I love doing in tunnels and underpasses, echoes through the whole damn tunnel/underpass!

Go eat some rice for an appetizer!
