How is the sound of your pipes other than the rattle? Are you otherwise pleased? Props for doing the work yourself!
Thanks for the props. Im determined to do every install on this car. Well minus the upcoming Uprev tune. I like the sound, a little raspy but again its to be expected w test pipes. I bought them because I wanted to enhance the loudness of my Stillen CBE. Which it did. It def flows better too. Smell is pretty rough. I can say goodbye to the fresh smell of my interior, its over for that. Im also expecting many complaints from my girlfriend.

Took a ride to Crystal Lake IL yesterday morning to take care of some honey do's.
Saw a red 350 parked in the Walmart shopping center south of town. Like me, he parked well to the rear of the lot. On the way back to WI, I passed a black rag top 370 has he was making a right turn off of 31 S in Johnsburg.

Kind of interesting since I never see another "Z" during my drives in the area. On the other hand, I stopped counting the vettes that passed me after 15.

Intrigue- no bov sound? Or just couldn't capture on vid?

Motored my Z this am and QDed afterwards. Was a pretty good drive. Not 100% awake cause mis-shifted to 5th instead of 3rd bog! Missed that chance to open her up. then approached a light that was about to change to green so I switched lanes to line up behind a STI only for the guy to stall. he wasn't awake either. Lol

Then on the way back drove spiritedly at speed limit as I always do and a Charger casually followed behind me not offensive just enjoying the ride.. and suddenly a douch in a family sedan 5series passed us at over 30mph for no reason. He must got confused which was the gas and which was the brake pedals while sexting. ... then I see some guy in either a Kia or Hyundai (was poorly alternated) do a bibimba flyby making alot of noise but not going really all that fast. He must got confused and was reminding himself he is not a winner. so the Charger and I just kept going at the same pace until we parted our ways.

I LOL'd! You know those guys are stomping and rowing their ways furiously through the gears to accomplish that drive by! If you look closely, you can see the beads of sweat begin to trickle down their foreheads from the effort! BWAHAHhahhahah

Sounds cool. Have you ever used Meguiars Ultimate Compound? I use it as a polish and am wondering how it compares to 205,

from what i know, the ultimate compound is a heavier polish compared to the #205. i have alot of fine scratches (dealer washed the car by machine, even though the sticker on the rear windshield specifically says NOT to) so the 205 is good enough.

if you have time, you might want to try using the 205 after the ultimate compound. then again for the perfect finish, i dont know THAT much about the products. /waits for kenchan to chime in

Thanks for the information. I have wanted to try the 205 for a while.
