        Think its a darn good deal. I just found out what a small ticking noise was on my car, its an exhaust leak coming from in between the manifold and the head. It seems the bolt just rusted away. Midas said it might cost up to 600 to fix becasue they might have to take the head off ( bullshit i think). Im sure i could do it my self but I don't wanna screw it up. If anyone knows a place that can do it, or can do it themselfs i would appriciate the tips

        PS: My spelling Fsucks!

                dynomax makes nothing but junk (have been aguing with them for 2 years over their "stainless steel" exhaust on my bravada that rusted in 6 months) they are just turbo mufflers really anyway

                  Ah memories. I used to have a 89 RS 2.8l. I put a flowmaster 40 or 80, can't remember, and gutted the cat. At idle everyone thought it was at least a 5.0l. Even the mechanic who drove it into the shop thought it was a 5.7l. I was having the trans mount fixed. He pulled it in and then called me over to the computer to give him my info. It went like this:

                  Him: What year?
                  Me: 89
                  Him: 5.7 right?
                  Me: No
                  Him: 5.0?
                  Me: No
                  Him: Don't tell me it has a 2.8.
                  Me: It sure does.
                  Him: How the heck did you get it to sound like that. It sounds awsome!
                  Me:

                  You'd need to eat 3 bowls of that import to equal the power found in just 1 bowl of LS1!

                    I had the Dynomax Super Turbo Cat-Back exhaust system on my 92 RS 3.1L before I sold it. It had a nice mellow sound at the lower RPMs, but when the RPMs got higher, everyone and their grandmother knew my car was a V6, but for only $160 and it being a direct bolt on, it wasn't a bad buy.
                    \"Chevy boys, we like it fast
                    So I drop it at the low, heavy at the gas
                    Before you know it, we be haulin\' ass
                    about 145 on the digital dash\"
