that's pretty much all i can say about the last 3 weeks. too busy to get in here that much which sucked. but anyway during that time i've gotten my h-pipe installed and put Cobra guages in as well (i know, not a real "mod" but i got them nonetheless).

I got a BBK h-pipe which high-flow converters which thanks to emissions laws, costed me $400. if i could have gotten some without the converters i would have paid a mere $150. and the guy that put them in for me couldn't put anything in that wasn't street legal. but it feels really strong and i noticed a change in the sound of the exhaust (something everyone told me wouldn't happen), it sounds a little throatier, very cool. and i also got new brakes and front tires and i feel like my bank account has been drained to nothing. very depressing but it feels good to get my car running smooth once again.

does anyone feel that sometimes your cars just need fixed a couple of things at a time? like two or three things kinda crap out or wear when you least need them too? maybe it's just me......

Not just you I promise! Had a small but annoying oil leak on the bike, got it fixed and the same nite the fuel pump on the Van went out! Doh $208 fuel pump. And then there's the Dodge. It's a law that when ever I get one thing fixed on it something else will break.

i hear what your saying, if i have to be somewhere, the car needs a wash, ha, then i'm late (HATE going out in a dirty car, blegh).

or if there is a car show or a criuse on the weekend and it's a tuesday, SOMETHING will start to rattle or you find a new ding or something.

It never seems to fail, when 1 thing goes wrong theres always something lurking in the background waiting its turn to pop up on ya. We just had flow masters put on our 2000 and man I love how it sounds and feels..odie

ah yes, i have the flows as well and they are a head turner, that's for sure.
