What happend with the exhaust videos?? End up doing the Hellas yellow?

To lazy and yes. The cherry bomb was stupid...picture a fart can civic but with UEL headers and lots if back fire, and that's how it sounded. The new custom has the tone of a Birks on a vr6 jetta. I may try to take a video of it tomorrow but my phone had terrible audio quality. I did end up trying to sand the pits out of the Hellas and sprayed them yellow. The light output diminished more than my fogs did, but honestly in a snow storm I can turn off the headlights and see great with just Hellas and fogs, I used to do that with my last set of yeller fogs.

I'm almost ready to upgrade my membership just so I can edit my phones autocowrecks

What he said lol

 

[inski]

That muffler sounds great!

 

[i-wagon]

Spanks! Now I need to see about the injector noise since the valves were fine

 

[RyanR]

Injectors are quite loud on these beasts due to the tiny 2cyl aluminum heads. Wouldnt worry about it much unless it pings or knocks bad.

 

[i-wagon]

I'm debating putting some sound deadening on the hood and firewall.

 

[i-wagon]

Oh yeah, yellow hellas

 

[Jamey]

Where is this exhaust video

 

[i-wagon]

Got tractors to fix and gardens to harrow bub. some time

 

[i-wagon]

Getting ready to repaint my winter steelies. Bought a wallet world hvlp gun, quart of rustoleum rusty metal primer and a quart of semi gloss black. I wanted the bright red but boss lady came unglued at the idea. Now I just need some dollar store playing cards

 

[scubiecraig]

I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on the cheap-o hvlp sprayer.

I've run a real nice devilbiss paint gun at work, we'll see

 

[Jamey]

Devibiss are the bomb

 

[i-wagon]

Yeah I don't have a couple hundred dollars to drop on a paint gun. But that one we have at work is amazing

 

[Jamey]

I miss painting , wish I never left getting laid off was a career killer siiiiigh..

 

[i-wagon]

They grow up so fast

 

[cwiggin]

Did you buy it brand new? Mine has 165000 now :/

 

[i-wagon]

I did. And all but a couple hundred of those miles were me pounding on it. I've blown up "more dependable" cars in shorter time. Kind of depressing, it's the only one I've bought new

 

[cwiggin]

It'll go forever
