Weekend Installs

Well, I didn't get to do all the installs I wanted to this weekend. Last week my wife was driving down to Kentuky to see her dying grandmother and her car broke down. Luckly her brother was driving there as well and his fiance lives about 15mins from me so he brought her back up. They both told me the car was gone and unfixable. So yesterday a friend and I drive down for six hours to pickup the car and we open the hood to see the serpinte(sp) belt missing!!! That's right, that's all that was wrong!! I'm pretty pissed because I spend over twelve hours driving down, tossing the car on the trailer and bringing it back up just because of a broken belt. I bought the belt today for $10.53 after tax.
So after that all I had time for was to install my catback exhaust. I love the sound of it but I'll be adding header's and high flow cat's to wake it up because it's not loud enough for me. There's no comparison to the loudmouth, the LM has tons of rasp at higher RPM's and the TSP Rumbler has NONE! I couldn't be happier but like I said, I just need to make it louder.

Reminds of when I thought my car toast and in reality it was just a bad plug wire.

Her brother and dad were there. They told me (and I'm not making this up), that it was out of oil and it cracked the block!!! When I checked it the oil was right at the full mark, probably because I checked all the fluids before she left. Worst part is her brother thinks he know's all about cars.

You like the TSP Rumbler Chad? I had never heard of it until you mentioned buying it....then I heard a sound clip and I'm wanting to upgrade and get rid of my 80 series Flowmaster.....

I am kinda worried that it might be too loud with LTs like the LM is.

I said earlier on it wasn't loud enough but it's settled in and it's loud now.

With LT's it would be to loud, it sound's a lot like the LM just without the rasp and it has a deeper tone to it.
