      • Nah, she is all fine, I think.. Just forgot to move it because I was lazy. I don't even know why it is there..


        Flowmaster is sending me a replacement muffler as the baffles in mine came loose. No idea how, thing is like 9 months old, with maybe 1000 miles on it.. Might just throw it up for sale for cheap and get a magnaflow, or something else. Time will tell.

          • Any opinions on XS power LT headers?

            http://shop.huronspeedproducts.com/X...tem-xsplt1.htm

            They'd be the same price as ceramic Pacesetters. These are stainless, 1 3/4 stepped to 1 7/8.

            Looking for reviews, fitment. I know pacesetters are pretty much the best choice, just exploring options. I'd rather not go with the painted headers from Pacesetter. Just don't want to dillydally removing the paint because i think it says to.

            I wonder if MIFbody members still get them for $475...

                • Well. I'm going to be buying some nice XS-Power headers in mid-June.. [MENTION=393]Superman09[/MENTION] made me an offer I could not refuse, and I thank him wholeheartedly. So, removal and installation will be short after that. I never installed headers. I had the shorties installed for $150, but I'm never going to that place again. They goofed pretty bad with the install, so I want to do it! If anybody wants to help, I'd be forever grateful! I think I'll get some header bolts, not quite sure yet. As for jacks and jackstands, I should have some. Can't wait lol. No more rattling cats, no more CEL.. brings a tear to my eye thinking I'll never see that check engine light until i have a major problem. *sniff sniff*

                  But yeah, Jonny is the man!

                    • AIR, EGR, and post cast sensors will be deleted either shorty after installation, or after the winter. Depends on money

                      • So.. I'm going with 245 rears I think.. it depends on how long it would be for 275s to come in.. The rears are in very bad shape.. they are rotted and are splitting, and I'm nervous going on the highway..
                        Sigh.. I shouldn't have been so lazy! Going from Nitto 315s to Riken 245s.. what a difference this'll be..

                        Edit: Errr.. I need 275s...

                        • I had 245's on my camaro back in the day which were okay, but man...nothing beats the look of the 275s barely fitting in the width of the wheel wells on my T/A. Not to mention the difference in rubber on the road of course.

                              275 all-season Goodyear Eagle F1s were on it when I bought it. Wish they weren't all seasons (the tread pattern is a little less agressive and the rubber compound is slightly harder compared to regular F1s I think) but nevertheless they're a good all around street tire in my opinion.

                                Yeah, I'm going with summer tires.. I honestly just want grip ya know. But I can't wait two weeks or however long it would take for Riken 275s to get in. I'm at the tire shop now getting my winter beater fixed.
                                Need them rikens.. ugh
