I won't be leaving the rotary world forever. My very first car was an NA so I was hooked from the start. I will just have to go a couple of years without one.

Ive got that 88 that is practically gutted, but the wiring harness's are there, then i have chris's 86(7) with a great body and interior....but had an engine fire so the wiring is toast...
neither car has a working engine, nor trans, but the rest is all there between the two.

You should probably just go to a muffler shop for a quick fix. If you don't have any leaks, just get a couple new mufflers. That should hold until you can save up the money for a performance system.

While I was swapping my tranny I had my exhaust off from manifold down. Let's just say I think people in the next county could hear it.

Well for some reason the cops around here think I have a loud exhuast. On the blue car I have the full racing beat system and with FA18's flying overhead the cops said he could hear me 1/2 mile away. So I could only imagine open headers!!!

I think the cop's were just hassling you man, full RB setups are no louder than an older corvette with the side exit exhaust. In fact I have personally heard louder harley's than my current setup, and I even think an open RB header is quieter than most "Hog's"

yea i was hoping to keep intact i love the sound its just too damn loud and i need too do somethin with it soon. but every muffler shop around here wants to rape me on the price talking 400 for mufflers so i figure if i found something decent and used i could just put it on myself.

Yea First, I know the cops were hassling me. They see military stickers and go for us. The cop also said that I had huge tips on my exhuast. Again just the normal racing beat stuff. I think he thought I was some young punk in a ricer. But when he found out I was old(34) he didnt know what to do. It just sucks because for the summer I cant drive my car down to beachfront at night, I know they would go nuts. I had a friend who got a ticket for loud exhuast on a f**** neon. It was stock, so go figure that a neon can be loud. But a harley, they never bother them. I can never figure that **** out.

Its all in the profiling man, cops wont **** with the guys on the cruiser bikes or the guys with the older muscle cars. Of which both can/will be much louder than any ricebucket ive ever seen/heard.
