Thanks, but I have the whole set with new tires. I have them off to try and free up the rear brakes. Hopefully the tank will clean up nicely.

I personally wouldn't waste my money on the brand name filter. Just go on ebay and pick up a 3" filter, I got mine for 15$ shipping was like $17, lol. Noticed a huge difference once all that restrictive stock piping was gone.

dj i think its time to ditch your smog pump, just ask manny what happens when a smog pump fails... it locked up, broke the bracket, busted two of his omp lines, and smashed the shroud, yeah you tell me if thats something you want on your engine. just rip it off, get a dual alt pulley(i sell them of course, not a fan of the yohoo belt) and call it a day, it will save you the headache

Do you have the muffler in hand yet? When you do let me know what size pipe it is, and what size the rest of your exhaust is where it is being mounted. If it is the 3 inch pipe and a 2 1/2 inch pipe, you will need the reducer regardless. If Advanced doesn't have it by some chance any muffler shop can make or sell you one. Let me know the sizes and I will check the stores locally and with my cousins muffler shop.

Seriously, 2 bolts and it is all removed....ok 5 if you remove the adjuster brackets as well.

Any time is good for me. Earlier in the day is best due to the heat. Like 10;30 -12 ish Or whatever works but that is my preference

IT'll be here monday.The muffler will be put on the driver's side of the rear bumper where my current one is, the piping is 3 1/2 on my car and the pipe on the muffler is 2 1/2 because the piping on the car it came off of was 2 1/2. i was told that if you can't find one you could always get two reducers that go from 2.5 to 3 and then 3 to 3 1/2.

I just needed to make sure i didn't need to buy a block off plate for when i remove the air pump because i didn't know whether or not the air control valve would need to be removed.

I'll probably be over at your house around 11.

Thanks again man.

Does it have exhaust hangers on it? If not you will need to grab a universal strap-on hanger..or some weldable rod to make some. Again I can check with my cousin if you can't find some by then. Let me know.

Respeed also has dual sheave alt pulleys cheap.

Hey Sam, if you need any GSL-SE hardware (ECU, harness, fuel rail, injectors, AFM, manifolds, sensors, etc) just let me know. I've got a spare of nearly everything.
