I am tired, I am hungry, I am pissed off, and I am covered in grease (ew). Don't be surprised if my car is found in the bottom of a river somewhere tomorrow.


Wow tonight blew.
Ron and i had similar issues when installing my bushcur DP. The bolts just wouldnt catch the threading. He even tried modifying them. We were just about to give up when we realized that we were trying to reuse the stock bolts and the exhaust actually came with new longer ones. That was a real PITA.

When Rudy was still down here we (Rudy, Prvrt & I) did a whole Buschur TBE with NO issues. I don't know why so many people are having problems.

the exhaust itself went on really easily. the problem was us not following the instructions and using the correct, supplied bolts for the downpipe. my buschur TBE uses V band clamps, not flanges so there was some trial and error getting everything to line up right and be leak free. the fact that one of my pipes get bent during shipping didnt help matters either.

Sorry I haven't updated in a while.. Went to Moroso with the boyfriend and so wasn't near a computer. Took the car to Fynetune today around 2:15 and they had the new exhaust on and me out the door in less than an hour. I guess I know for next time! That's the first time I had been there and they are all such nice people. Im really glad there is a good shop so close to my house. Looking forward to tomorrow morning at Fynetune for the tuning!

Justin: Sounds good for the pod, don't think I'll be getting the gauge in for tomorrow anyway so not a biggie.

Damn my car sounds sexy now. (yay) finally.

Oh yea... how do I boost leak test the Evo? I know how my boyfriend does his SRT, is it the same way? I gotta throw the intake on the car that I got also. Oy vey it's gonna be a looooooong day! Night all, see u in the morning

Sorry I couldn't go to denny's to hang out..., I have work at 9:00am ,so I had to jet home. I'm looking forward to the next meeting. I hope it's ok if I bring my sister next time. She loves evo's.
