well, to my suprise I walked into the house yesterday after work and found 3 boxes waiting for me.

ebay header from surewin


magnaflow high flow cat (this was only like $20 more than a normal one)


vibrant ultra quiet resonator ( ooohh... so shiny)


it was like christmas all over again.
now all I need to do is wait on my muffler which is backordered, but that'll give me time to shop around to see who's gonna fab it up for me.

yup, its because the metal is getting so hot its molecular structure is changing. crome doesnt stand up that well to those kind of extremes, ceramic coating, or not.
