You have to have a pool if you are going to live in Florida or Arizona in the summer.

Remember, I'm having the people who work directly for Garry Dean do my detailing. They are well versed in his methods of do no harm.

You know I was a complete n00b a couple of months ago. I do love learning how this stuff works. But changing my own oil? Not gonna happen,

2200+. Which got me to thinking......... They say give your exhaust 3000 miles or so to settle in and see where the sound is. I'm just not happy with the sound. It doesn't have that low rumble I'm looking for.

I got my car up on a rack to see what was possible. Our active exhaust sensor is just a few feet from the end of our pipes. Anything you do before the sensor could effect power. Just whacking off a few feet of pipe on the back doesn't seem to be of any benefit. Whacking the resonators that come after the sensor creates a drone. The only real choice is to go full catback exhaust system or muffler delete and risk losing some power.

There are owners doing a muffler delete in our Scat Pack Shaker group and are happy with the results. Here's an example:
