I just filled up on Friday, 61L for $59... This will probably last me less than a week (5-6 days).
Fark
Those kits are nice, although my favorite is the stock front end with a lip. Just wait until you guys see my custom lip (almost Lam-style).
Don't worry, it'll look nice |

well... since i cant drive i figure i may aswell finish my car well i have time to work on it. im trying to think up possible exhaust upgrades. as is my pacesetter is only 2.5" mandrel bent very free flowing.
.. but not good enough
plan a) spend all my money and gets a Blitz NUR Spec catback or the MAXX system for a little bit less money
plan b) keep the stock exhaust pipes, but buy one of those cheapo canister style mufflers off ebay. have kenny weld it up and put a mechanical exhaust cut out in the place of the 2nd cat.
im sorta leaning to plan b... i know electronic is easier for the cut-out, but its more money and i want to do this as cheaply as possible, if infact i do it at all.
suggestions?

go run out buy shinny muffler of choice and send you to the pla cei got my stuff done at you can ever get you muffler put on angle if you wish it all up to you
buying cat back system is just plain dumb i find in less you are rolling in money
over grand for exhuast is not my cup of tea
but under 200 bucks for pipeing that will never rust and you choice of muffler you can't go wroung

$320 to my door from toysport on socalsupras, he runs www.supra-sport.com
as for the exhaust, why not keep your current exhaust, and get an electric cutout before the cat? uS$99 for the electric cutout, US$35 for a cutout from summit, probably not even an hour to weld it onto your current downpipe. when you want to go fast, hit a switch, thats it.
tell you what murray. ill trade you my exhaust for yours + an electric cutout? lol

hrmm yeah the cutout idea is sounding sweeter the more i look into it
electric cut out. i dont know.. just more money... is it really that hard to stick your hand under the car and turn a knob?
i mean it may be useful if you get pulled over by a cop for sound polution or something, but i wouldnt plan on using it very often. i think even on my shitty catback if i had the resonator welded out and put on a canister style muffler it would flow fairly well. but thats besides the point
i want fast spool... very fast, and the quickest way would be the cut out which for the money, seems the best way to go.
im still worried about burning the hell out of the underside of my car, i mean ryan shoots flames from the back of his muffler, if that was happening post-cat it cant be good for daily driven (thinks up some sort of heatshield idea....)

i ran open dp and stuff befor qnd then hooke dup my exhuast did not really notice any power incress that was realy that great
but heat seail will not do squte for flames it will burn you car remmber the close the open end the bigger the flame the hotter the flame akak blue flame
not avised in any way if you wan to run open dp let it go out side of the car plus you trans tems will sky rock it just not smart
i wounder never do it but that is me

or you direct the cutout away from the trans, thats how they are designed. go tell all the hotrod guys that run cutouts that they arent good.....

i'll have to ask what steve at the tranny shop thinks
i wouldnt want to do it, then have my warranty go to shit because of it.
also he deals with alot of killer cars, so he'd know about cutouts first hand.... and well if he doesnt, marlon will
