I ordered quite possibly the smallest TIG welder known to man today. Its a 110 Volt and 35% duty cycle at 100 amps but it'll work for the little things I do. Time to start burning holes in exhaust tubing again.
I also have the home made duel fuel pump almost done. Hopefully it'll be piped in and installed tonight. I took off work tomorrow to play with the car and clean it. Do you guys think it would be a good idea to do a how-to on making a dual setup? I'm amazed how easy and inexpensive it really was. Minus the pumps I spent something like $75ish for all the stainless fittings, hoses, clamps etc. I can't believe how expensive they are from some of the vendors and it was really easy to do. I used a hacksaw, a grinder, drill bits and that was basically it.

Did you mount it under the car? I have actually been getting the itch to make a 4 inch exhaust for my car since I have all the materials at work lol. Sucks the mufflers and resonators are so expensive
Your car should pretty much kick *** on E85

Dude, get the Magnaflow 11249 that Ray has...it's cheap on Amazon. Consider your Cobb sold if you get a new exhaust....

I did a dual intank setup. I looked at the inline but it was cheaper and easier to deal with the intank setup.

I read that a few days ago. I wouldn't say that it was funny, but very sad. They did some great things together, it was a shame that things ended that way.

I was a big fan of Gangstarr in the late 90's. I've been relistening to moment of truth, and hard to earn is next. RIP

Would you see any gains from a 4" exhaust? It would be interesting to do back-to-back dyno runs.

He has an Aero Turbine resonator, and the Magnaflow muffler. As for the rsb, nah... I have a feeling no one will be interested, so it'll be on display in the backyerd, lol. Let me know when I can grab the trunk bar from you.
