It isn’t factory stuff. It is like some shit this guy got at home depot and stuck in the entire car. The stuff just rips and is hard as hell to get out. Heat makes it a terrible mess. So we are going to try dry ice. But IMO we just need a few people willing to just do hard work for 4-6 hours and it would be done. I have like 6-8hrs into it and it is probably 1/4 done.

text me brah I will come help

Look at the silver shit all over the interior in the pics. I have not tried aircraft cleaner.

If you look closely at my mazda, it is aftermarket sound deadened too. It’s tar paper with some shmegma on it.

Also one power bummer is that for this season I am running a mid length header setup. This is really going to hurt the power on a big cam. I just do not feel like spending $1,500 for new headers/y-pipe right now. So I hope I can still make around 400rwhp on the current setup. If it does not then I will prob spring for the new headers setup. FML

I don’t think this is as big of a deal as a lot of people make it out to be, most of the dyno comparisons I’ve seen show a loss in low end torque and little peak power difference. Or, instead of spending $1500, you could build your own. What mid lengths are you running?

I agree with you until we start looking at huge cam cars. My cam is 242/248 .608 .612 I think off the top of my head. It has been my experience that on this type of setup long tubes help a good bit. But I am going to set it up the way it is then see how it does. I am certainly going to find out for sure before I spend more $$$

I was thinking of buying the longtubes and then making an x-pipe back setup. I could probably sell my full stainless 3.5" system to cover most of this cost. I should probably do that haha

That sure is nice however mine is going to look mostly stock for this season. Just kinda slammed/wheels and r1 lip. That car is one of my favorites though.
