On the road again!

After a whole week of spending money and working hard on the car and lots of hours at work she is finally back on the road and is all legal.

Got a magnaflow free flow cat put in and 2 inch piping all the way back witha resonator and a magnaflow muffler with dual tips. Also my engine had a small external oil leak.so i replaced my front and rear crankshaft oil seals and the pan gasket. Also fixed the body on the rear and it all looks good now. Got the parking brake cable fixed and checked over everything and put some undercoated underneath so it would all look nice. I also replaced my front brakes beacuse they were getting low. Had lots of material left for safety but what teh hell get it all done now.

So I take it in and it passes after he ahd to replace a balljoint that i replaced 3 months ago from canadian tire. Don't buy the economy ones! He also passed teh acr with L.E.D signals. he just said make sure you have amber bulbs inside the car incase a cop pulls you over.

So after getting all that fixed and have a full exhaust with no leaks. its got more power now. I love it...Its pretty quick now. I'm hoping for a 15.0 second run.

Good to hear, getting it all done in a week was some quick work. I always keep my amber bulbs in the car too, they will make you get out and change them if they want.

This is where you type a bunch of shit about how awesome your car is. FACT: It's been scientifically proven that the more shit you write in here the less cool your car is. Nine times out of ten the majority of people who talk shit down here don't even have any of the crap they talk about on their car. I drive an 8 year old domestic and barely give two shits about it. I beat the hell out of it and it begs for more, just like your girlfriend. Go ahead, cut me off. I dare ya.

about 7seconds if he does it

I wouldn't boost a motor with high compression like that. Sure it can be donw but better know what your egtting into. But we all know this is just talk...lol

Just got an alignment done on the car and its perfect now.
All i need now is my UDP and a better air filter. I have a cheap $5 eaby one. i baught it mostly for the MAF adaptor. I want one tahts not gunan rust and one thats gunan suck lots of air.
