I cant knock pete for cookie cutter setups. I WISH i could just buy shit and make my car go vroom, no i gotta pay people more who do shit by hand instead of shops who all they do is crank this shit out have machines that do certain shit for them. There are a lot of cases with cars who have this shit redily availible where its not really worth it to pay someone to custom make something for you when you can just get something in the mail and slap it on. Unless hes a friend and well do work for little money or a 12 pack. There are exceptions, but to me 20-30 dollar difference, id prolly just buy whatever it was instead of waiting for a place to make something for meā€¦ KK excluded because id have him fab me up anything i could so I could get him drunk and take advantage of him This bucher shit is nonsense to me though, i think theres a lot of good quality shit behind it but that pipe is an example of a company who can pretty much just sell dogshit and people will buy it because its bucher racing. I also think taking anything the ā€œhorses mouthā€ says as 100% fact is stupid too ---
