Thanks Moonshine. Just ordered the shifter with orange handle and i read the race silver shifter is only 30 bucks so i can order it later but i am sure orange a little longer handle is going to be more comfortable for me.

Thanks alot.

You'll love the MGW shifter, it's one of my favorite mods.

As for the audio stuff, I'm a Pioneer and JL audio guy. I've had great experience with them for the past ~6 years, I haven't touched anything else. It has two good reviews though, looks like the one guy was running two 12'' subs through it. Should be fine to do what you want. I'd recommend you go talk to a local mom and pop type place that does car audio (that has a good reputation and has been around for a while). You don't have to buy from them/have them install, but just ask them for what they'd recommend and you're just "trying to get a feel". Usually they'll be very helpful.

Theres practically no possible way to get out every bit of oxygen in your tires. In there's 99.5% nitrogen in your tires it will make any positive attribute to the nitrogen null and void because that half percent of oxygen will expand and contract. If one had 100% nitrogen in his tires he would see virtually no change in tire pressure.


It sounds cool and was a huge fad a few years ago.
it only matters in planes so the tires dont blow up on landing.
