dude, driving around with the downpipe disconnected is fucking loud!!!!! Can we say V8??? hahaha. Anyway, I never knew a SOHC could feel like that!!! fucking awsome!!! It feels totally different now! I'm so fucking happy and excited to ride in that thing again! There are gonna be some pretty surpised cars on the streets soon!!!! hahaha. and the fmic looks so fucking awsome!!! First gear took about 2-3 seconds or so before he had to shift and at the same time, my stomache was getting pulled back into the seat so fast!! Awsome man, simply awsome!!!!:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Can't wait till you boost full throttle for all gears and all the way!!!!!

Was this actually a junkyard setup, or was this a proper turbo system for the car but hooked up by McGyver?

We just hooked up the downpipe to the cat and it's SO MUCH more quiet!!!!! Damn, but on the down side, we did notice a little bit of power loss. But I guess it's okay because his car is now super quiet as well as we don't have the horrible exhaust smell coming in!!!! hahah:thumbsup: Still fun though man!! Very fun! Now he won't be left behind on the cruises!:rofl: :thumbsup:

fuck this is all mad confusion..no one knows were being sarcastic when we call waynes car a cavalier or a tiburon..in order to avoid this mass confusion while still pissing Wayne off at the same time we'll have to start calling his car cutlass supreme:thumbsup:
