I want to do the dual hallman MBC as I heard they have a fast enough reaction to not get spikes even with a fully open exhaust and intake. I could also just restrict my exhaust a little, I do want to get the RB dual and quiet it down a little.
I have a Single tip Racing Beat that you can have for a GOOD deal....

is the tip smaller than the greddy I believe hp? and is it quieter? The greddy melted the plastic surround and I want something a bit more restrictive and quiet.

I also need a transmission, going to make a WTB thread for it, I plan on that and bushing between now and September.

Tip is smaller and definitely quiter.

I believe I'm partial to the 2nd pic. I saw the guy who originally did those tails when he posted pics like 3 years ago. Nice to see them on someones car!

I should take some stockers apart and do my own lights for sale.

What did I do today? My car trolled me and the security relay went. Just made a jumper and running back to Publix to get it.

Started to test fit a Racing Beat Series I Bumper (their version of Knightsports Version 3 Bumper). Pulled some random items out of the car at the same time.
