Default It's been raining here for the past week and 1/2...

so no good days for E-Town runs. I'm dying to get my magnaflows put on the car. They are just sitting around collecting dust right now.

I just want to get a couple of timeslips to see a true number effect of the GIAC TipChip that I put in the other week. ARGGH!

I'm losing my patience for good weather. The stainless magnaflows look so sweet, and its going to sound so much meaner, I want them on the car, pronto. But I also want to see the performance increase attributable to the mufflers alone as well. If I put em on now, I wont have a clue what's attributable to the mufflers or the tipchip.

I am really interested in seeing a true reflection of the performance improvement that is attributable to the tipchip, via timeslip. Does anyone happen to have a pre tipchip/after tipchip timeslip for a 4.2? How about a 4.2 with exhaust?

Default I was so pi$$ed today with the weather and the look of....

Default Wednesday??? Possibility there if the weather holds up...

I like running on Wednesday because you can get a couple of runs in really quick and be outta there in under 2 hrs. You're car barely has enough time to get back down in temperature.
