exhaust leak galore for me. If work isn't busy, I may be able to patch it up temporarily and make it to the tracks, otherwise, I gotta stay late and get the small things fixed. (reconnect my rear O2, put 2 missing exhaust hanger on, get rid of exhaust leak)

I hope I can get it all done before the tracks, I do want to come and see what I can run now!

well, didn't make it to the tracks today...on a high note, exhaust is now complete!

What had happened was my down pipe and cat-back were purchased from 2 different people, so when I tried to install it, flanges didn't quite fit. I managed to get it to fit somewhat (leaving some exhaust leak), and had to put it on an angle because 2 of the 5 hangers could not reach.

Suffice to say, it's now all fixed and ready to rock. Perhaps next Wednesday I will make another attempt at the tracks. Cannot do it thurs as I work late.

Picked up downpipe and O2 housing from Jaime Loo for a great price. Then got a near new Vibrant cat-back for a great price as well.

Couldn't say no to either...lol

Lets just say for $600 I got an entire system essentially brand new, with a cat-converter, hangs well, SS, and properly installed.

for the most part, yes.

Downpipe starts at 2.5" at the O2 housing, then expands to 3" at the flex.

Ya, I ended up going out to the track. I didn't run the best tho frown smoked a cavalier with gauges, big exhaust system and a BOV if it counts laugh

Me and my friend looked around the ground where we were all parked on the day of the invasion, there was nothing but broken glass and plastic for some reason. Someone probably took it, it has been a few weeks.

Would I be able to run 18psi on a 14b with stock injectors + pump? If so I'll go get a MBC today.

Im thinking you might hit fuel cut. Maybe rewire the pump ( a few bucks) and it should do. 18 psi is pushing it. try 15 first, and just go up a little at a time to see how she likes it laugh .

I think so, If you keep an eye out on our classifieds then you might find a better one for cheaper if you dont rush it. Them things have crazy price ranges. Some can be like 150+

$30 will get you from Ziggy, get that one, do just 15psi for now, or else you will hit fuel cut at WOT, you could experiment with higher octane and se w2here that brings you, you could run higher psi than

Weather is still seeming funky out this way, anyone know if cayuga is any fun to watch in the rain? If anyone is still thinking of going I can update what the weather looks like over here later on.
