uh oh are we gonna get into it about exhaust again lol....

the obx twin loop is so quiet, thats what i go for...

yup yup mine is all motor and it worked great. dont think i lost or gained anything when i switched to a greddy system. i just missed the sound of a nice exhaust note. with the thrush all i heard was engine. it was really quiet.

well the shop did the right thing kinda and gave me a used, made for a turbo flow master i didn't even know they made a flo master for a honda. so for 80 bucks i got a used muffler. the car seems to have most of its power back, but i can't wait to get the obx twin pass.


sorry about the curse i chewed on a bar of soap promise,

i didn't know wont happen again

i wouldn't say i'm dumb i would say i'm trusting, i'm in med school if that stands towards my intelligence at all. the problem is the shop i trusted send it out to have the exhaust work done, so they act like they are the ones who got screwed and had nothing to do with it. when I demand they fix it, i got a used muffler, it was that or nothing,

the shops name was ACE auto electric or something,
