Why is there always someone with advice on how people should spend their money. It's not like you going out and spending it all is gonna affect them and they sure as hell aren't paying your bills. Spend it how you want to Jake. F*ck it! You only live once! Save some of it, but what good is all that money in the bank gonna do you when you're dead one day. Than someone else gets to spend it. I say BLAH! Have fun!

Anyone know of a good ramp to get under a lowered Evo? I'm wanting to change my own oil to save $$$, but I need a way to get under the car.

I've never understood how people equate saving money with not being able to "live" life. There are not mutually exclusive and saving allows you to "live" life much better off in the long run.

This is besides the point that bad decisions by one/more people have the ability to affect many other people. Many bad financial decisions by banks and home owners around this country that have nothing to do with either of us have turned the financial sector upside down and have the economy in this country on the brink of collapse. That affects us all, yes?

Will the codgi getting on a soap box and preaching solve this? No. But will people continuing with shortsightedness increase this problem? Yes.

People will never figure out how their actions indirectly effect them one way or another. I am sure there are more than a few people in the stock market that realize this though

I just need to take it off and heat it with a torch and compress the pipe thru the area where it passes by the TC. I just don't wanna after all the headaches I've had w/ the exhaust. This weekend I stripped out the o2 housing and snapped the bolt off inside the flange. (Well my friend did, but it would of happened to me too if I happened to be turning the wrench at the time.) I drilled and tapped it to a 7/16-14 now, but I don't have the collar on the bolt like the factory ones did. That's what caused the problem in the first place it turns out. Perrin's template for the flange is off by about 1/32" which was enough to cause it to misalign itself going thru the DP flange.
This has nothing to do with what you sold me Chris, it's Perrin's problem for low QC on the parts.
