Default Big install tomorrow!!! UPDATE! COMPLETE!

JBA Shorty Headers, Pypes Dual Exhaust Conversion with O/RX-Pipe andStreet Pro mufflers, Street Scene 'Elenor' Grill, and a PHP Alternator Pulley purchased from Ron (rmays06).

GT Rear Bumper is on backorder [:@]

I'm excited! I'll post pics when finished!

UPDATE!!!

Ok...so I'm never doing headers again haha. The exhaust wasn't horible, but it still doesn't fit right and has a couple leaks. I ended up using half the hangers and clamps off the stock exhaust cause ****ing Pypes didn't send me enough stuff. The underdrive pulley got here yesterday (thanks Ron!) so I will probably install that tomorrow. And my friend surprised me with some Sequentials for my birthday..I really like those!

The exhaust sounds mean as hell, but there are some vibration issues to be adressed.

I think I'm going to end up taking it to this local shop and saying "fix this!" haha.

The other issue I ran into was in the middle of doing the headers, I got really sick and was throwing up everywhere; not sure of the cause of that one haha (food poisoning?)

The car does feel a lot stronger, and the engine seems to be flowing better overall, all though I'm not sure if my tune is there. I had to disconnect the battery, and my tuner is getting sent back to SCT to be fixed right now, but the car runs fine. I figure with that big *** C&L, it wouldn't be running right if the tune WASN'T there.

Anyone know if disconnecting the battery would re-set your tune?

Pics will be up when I transfer them from the camera over the next couple days!

UPDATE #2!

Ok...So I took it to the shop and all is right with the world

I set off 2 car alarms last night...I think I will start keeping a talley...
