Cause motors come and go. I mean you can supercharge it next wk and blow it up in 6 months, then what?
I'd rather have it according to the chassis. Just me, idk.

That's your opinion. I picked these up to get more ton but want to be nice to my neighbors since I like them and they like me for now.
So I'm doing what some people say not to do and get cats to help somewhat quiet the long tubes. Ill switch them out for a prochamber when I get the exhaust fully installed some time and turn it into an O/R set up with a prochamber. Maybe lol

The magnaflow mufflers you have shouldnt be loud at all with no cats. I bolted those same mufflers straight up to my headers as a test and it was quiet as could be. I think you'd be alright with the neighbors. Aside from that, good luck on that header install lol. Its going to be fun.

Unbelievable progress in just a year and a half. Good job! And dont worry about those harping on the odo reading. For a franken car like this, who cares what it says? As long as its not conflicting with what showed when you got the car registered/titled, I wouldnt worry about it.

Some updates.
I had gotten tired of the replica spoiler in the ebay black gel coat form, so i started the painting process
After smoothing out a bunch of waves and weird grooves, i got the spoiler straight and ready for paint
and paint.
but i didnt realize it until it was too late.
my finger was getting numb and tired while using the spray can and i ended up throwing paint drops onto the wing... ugh well i let it dry for a day or two and tried to feather it out. turned out great and smooth, so i used some rubbing compound to bring it back and ended up using the wrong stuff. it was a rubbing compound with wax in it lol. thats what i get for working until 4 in the morning.
I tried to remove the crap i used but it reacted with it all the way down to the primer so i had to start all over. For now the wind is in plasti dip until i get another week to start at it again

Well after all of the stress after the spoiler i just needed to focus on something else. I finally took the car to a track. I still have not installed my long tubes yet but will be soon.
I ran the car up there signed up for track use and got in line. I hadnt changed anything on the car and i had at least 1/2 a tank in the car.
My first run i was able to squeak off a
