Icon14 Got my new exhuast today

Got a Flowmaster 40 street muffler. $120 installed at Dyer muffler. they wanted more but the sight of cash and the negotiated lol. lifetime warranty on parts and labor.
sounds good. only time ricey is when you bounce it off the revlimiter when its in park.

Sometimes I wish I had an auto. It does suck after a while when your in alot of stop and go traffic. Also, your going up and down alot of big hills and have to keep shifting non stop cause your underpowered (ME )
