welp, Boys I painted it...Fire Red :P bunch of little runs ...but then again its only the first coat :P. some Orange peel too....
It was kind of a spurr of the moment thing. . . I also found a motor mount bracket for 26 bucks shipped to me. (gotta love TD.com)
I painted the valve cover :P Same colour of the car....And the intake. . I needs some sanding though and proper prep it was just to test how it looked. .
I get to sand the **** out of the whole thing tommorow yet again. Don't ask how im painting it either..its a surprise.
I will get some pictures tommorow stay tuned :P

Haven't replaced it with anything yet...I have yet to pull the cat and muffler off. That fart can was just an enormous tip :|
I am going with stainless steel...Don't think duals is what I want though. It just seems ricey with FWD :P
yup thats all they are... just a lil fiberglass packing inside... they are pretty much just a resonated tip... thats why they are so awfully loud.

me too :P....on TD I found a guy who has a motor mount (the complete front one) to sell me. It needs a new motor mount but that's easy to change.
Alright Tbird...I need help. With this wastegate or whatever being blocked for "Max" boost. . . and the factory highest being something like 15....How can I bring it back to stock or something like 8 or 10 PSI cuz right now its rediculous. You are driving the car and you have to ride the brake to keep the car under 50km/h and thats pretty fast for the streets in town (they are horrible) Therefore stalling the car.
(It's like when a car idles tooo high, and you barely have to use the gas...I can't remember what RPM I was at when all this was happening...but that might be my problem)
Also can anyone reccomended a good battery?
drop your idle to 750-800. if you still don't like the boost (which you won't be pushing much at 50 km....) u can get an adjustable boost contoller..

the people at TD had it narrowed down to PCV but then they were telling to me to cut and weld stuff...so I figured I'd talk to you folk.
