    fibergass or what?

    it is not as flexible as urethane and more prone to cracking. be careful with scraping and **** if your car is dropped. You may also need to get it molded onto your car by a body shop as it might not fix exactly.

    Ordering gauges, quick question

    Hey guys, I'm picking up autometer phantom oil pressure and water temp gauges. I also need a 3rd gauge to fill in the last hole on the pillar.

    Question, please help!

    This is a perfectly normal smell. The smell is all the **** like oil and stuff from manufacturing burning off the exhaust. If it continues for more than a few days, then I would get concerned.

    catted X or o/r x pipe

    if you get the magnaflow catback, i would go with something o/r since it's a chambered muffler like the flows. If you go with the packs, get a catted pipe or it will be way too loud and sound like ass, especially with an X. With the o/r pipe, expect it to be at least 2-3x louder than a...

    IRS Swap-Is it worth it?

    I think (someone correct me if I'm wrong) that the solid axle is more suited for drag/straight line and the IRS is better for cornering and autocross/road racing type applications.

    I'm going to order a MagnaPack setup today and also want to get a midpipe. Which midpipe should I go with? :) It will be catted because I heard it gets too raspy with an O/R pipe w/ the packs (lack of backpressure). I've been looking at the MRT Catted H-Pipe and the Magnaflow Catted X-Pipe...
