Threw on a ZZP catless downpipe. Even with the stock catback, I expected much more loud, i'm happy that it's not overbearing. there's a bit of a a leak that needs to be cleared up, but other than that, it's pretty sweet.

 

Got new tires last Friday. Got an alignment yesterday. Did one 2nd gear pull and think I popped a tire. I smelled burnt rubber and now its flat.

 

It won't make it louder, Just less back pressure

 

I figured that it'd get at least a little louder in the full RPM range, but you know... REALLY noticeable under WOT, but i'm wrong and ok with it lol. I just need to fix the leak to get a hit on what it sounds like minus the leak.

Anybody got an temporary suggestion for a snapped bolt between downpipe and exh mani to still allow a better seal?? part of the bolt got stuck in the mani threads still, and i can't break it out for another day.

 

Not much really you can do for that, Make sure you buy a new gasket when you swap them out, if it's old.

 

Brand new gaskets when i put on the new downpipe (last night), but i'll check them out when it's time to replace.

 

Put my zzp springs up for sale and drove to work. It's nice to still get close to 30mpg even on ethanol blend.

 

I need ethanol in my car lol

 

i should be able to check my resistors tomorrow night assuming you didnt find what you needed yet... ill let you know

 

Thanks! I didn't find what I needed. If not no big deal. I ordered some off eBay today anyway.

 

Come on emp we need our side markers ready lol

 

Hurt a 1996-8 4.6 mustang owner's feelings. He thought he was going to leave me in the dust but we were even the whole time. Just a 0-50mph run.

 

those things are pigs and slow

 

They are when a NA 4cyl beats them. Had a loud exhaust and K&N stickers and everything. Can't wait to SC swap one day and hurt more feelings.

 

Opened up the blower, drained the oil and inspected everything. Rotors still have a great amount of coating and it was pretty clean inside.

Gonna port and polish, plug the silencer holes, reassemble and add new oil in the next week or so.

 

No just no.

This mod needs to end. It's silly.

 

Oil change...but have a laundry list of stuff to do, Walnut blast valves, New CABs, New Trans mount bushings, New Brakes, Cleaning wheels, Paint correction.

 

Got new tires for it

 

Someone was parked across 4 spots on my lunch, so I moved my car real close next to them, rolled my windows down, ate my lunch, and leaned back for the rest of my lunch.

 

got retros installed and done by riceburner on sunday..finally got some pics of them.

 

I really like those retros how much they they run you for?

 

They cost me $800...about $640 in parts and rest in labor. I love them so much. Got to say thanks again to riceburner for making them.

 

Lol damn I can't compare mine to that for sure, but yeah they where my favorite that rice made from the 3 sets great job for sure

 

Bought a locking gas cap for it. Someone seems to have just ripped the other one off.

 

Damn that sucks man
