    That's exactly what he did! I'd like to know how expensive it is and what all kinda work is involved in it and what all kinda parts do you need to complete it.

    "Open headers at a flip of a switch" @RightOnTime tells me @Burna J haha

    Added a set of Sylvania Silverstar Ultra 9005 High Beam bulbs.

    Somewhat brighter than the stock halogen bulbs and a slightly less yellow hue.

    Cool Video. Did you blow an exhaust manifold? Car seems to get louder half way through the video.....

    Picked up an Electric Exhaust Cut Out - Open headers on a flip of a switch (Off Road use only)

    With the help of Sean by providing me with an extra exhaust pipe system (y) Thanks!

    Secret weapon indeed! Doubt it made a difference

    Had to keep the windows down to signal to others to pass by. For my group, you can only pass by on the straights which was hilarious!

    You might be right ;);)

    Got a little extra time between prepping for Thanksgiving today and got busy with a couple of mods. :rolleyes:

    Completed the rear wiper delete mod:

    Did you go with the metal or plastic plug for the wiper delete?

    Since the inside of the plug is covered by an interior panel, I went with the plastic plug. It had a much tighter fit into the hole.

    I also didn't want to spend the time necessary to bend a bazillion tabs to help lock the metal plug into place. o_O

    ....and yes, I used silicone around the plug. :)

    Meet up with @Burna J & @Thanh Tran today. Finshed up BurnaJ's steering wheel.

    For Thanh Tran, I installed a set of signal mirrors, HID relay harness & G headlights

    Yes sir, It was a busy day for@sfv41901

    While he worked on G head lights, I got a chance to black out the logo on my steering wheel. I'll have some pics of the finished wheel tomorrow.

    Thanks again Sean... (y)
