[QUOTE="Fawls, post: 1578432, member: 37733"] One of the first mods I did to the car was the Flowmaster copy Chinese chamber mufflers that a friend welded in for me in his workshop, it had the factory original mufflers to start with so I only needed to join the headers to the mufflers. The chamber mufflers gave it a deeper sound and not much louder. Next I aligned the wheels with some string so I wouldn't wear out my new tires on the way to get an alignment, I just went to the Tyre shop where they basically just adjust the Toe and get the steering wheel crooked (every time, doesn't matter who). The steering had a lot of play and wandered all over the road. So after changing the Hydro boost I went whole hog and replaced the pump, hoses and got a new steering rack and steering shaft. I have since had it aligned (with wheel straight) by a friend's shop, his mechanic has set up race cars and knows his stuff, all seems good now. My friends workshop is over an hours drive away, if it was closer I would get more done there. (They build Hot Rods).
