Im sure it would help out for sure, but I think you may need to get away from the stock mufflers in order to free up the most power. I remember you saying that you didnt like how loud it was. Is there another exhaust that may not be as loud but still be free flowing?

It's is like night and day now with the sound in the cab, and I kinda like it. I was just thinking the y pipe to free up a little more air flow and a little sound. I don't think I want to spend the money on a whole new setup. I am about to do the brake up grade from Z1 and think money will be better spent there.

How did the sale of the Toyota go! Did you get what you wanted out of it?

Does $12,500.00 for a 1981 toyota 4wd truck sound good to you, lol!! I know im a lucky dawg.. It is a bad Arse, one of a kind truck for sure though.

Come to think about it since your a cool dude (besides being a clemson fan/grad) and have always showed up for the mountian cruises ill sell you my Nismo exhaust for $400.00 Installed. Its just sitting around anyways, and I love to wrench on cars. Plus I dont want you making excusses next time we get a chance to race each other, lol...

$400 is a good deal. Plus free installation. You can sit back and drink a beer while Rooskey does all the work.


Ok, so who is seriously considering showing up for September 30th drive? I'm just trying to gage interest.

Its a H-Pipe and not a Y-pipe. Ill text you a pic of it this weekend or monday. Only thing I recommend is that you buy new gaskets where it bolts to the hfc's.

Well I woke up with a hell of a hangover today! Its my B-day so thats my excuse. Anyways Tina got me a GoPro2. It came with several adhesive mounts and was thinking of putty one inside the car (dash or rear strut brace). I am also looking for other idea's so let me know. I have also seen some mounted on the outside of the car, but dont know how good they are. I would hate to loose my camera while driving down the road.
