Lost 1 cat Oops

Hey guys,

well today was 1 of my very few days off from work,I finally took the trip to the shop where the guy is doing my piping for my turbo... I had him cut out my 2nd cat n replace it with a pipe.. $50 beans (kinda high but i just met him ya know) ... I asked him if he could do the down pipe as well, but he told me that piping alone would be 120 cause of the flex pipe... So I told him ok just do the cat , Cause I didn't have that much flow on me at the time... I'll tell you the car sounds so much nicer and you can feel a lil difference not much but some.. On the way home I stopped by meinike, (sp?) and asked them how much for the downpipe and the fool told me $150... So I have one more place to check but I may just go back to this guy for that piece as well ... Oh and i still have my o2 sensor installed as well .. If I can't get an inspection sticker from my work come 04 I may just get a cat from work and put it back on I dunno... it's no biggie the perks of dealership work.. on the way home my girl and I ran into a BMW 740IL i believe and theguy tried to play with me he couldn't pass me he stuck by maybe my trunk... seemed pretty pissed off to that his bmw couldn't pass me up well thats all for now guys.. I hope to post some pics soon, I have some nice in motion ones

a 740 could not pass you?
you're still WAITING for turbo right?
cause if you are the guy prolly just couldn't reach the pedals properly.

yeah right a 740 would eat u for breakfast and then spit u back out of his exhaust.... my neighbor has a yellor 2002 oz rally and i smoked him in my 330ci... his oz is modded up really well... so either the 740 driver was smoking crack or something... remember there is no replacement for displacement!

Can we please avoid this turning into a flamefest? Just let the unbelievably unlikely slide and we can avoid potentially having this go the way of every Lancer kill thread I've EVER read.
