Sure, that'd be great, and model #'s and sizes if possible.

I was considering the single intercooled tip as another option. Did you use the one below? Got any photos of it on the car?

Thanks bitsnake. The borla actually looks pretty good and not much gap between the tips. What size do you figure those tips are? 3"?

I found another option: This 3" in magnaflow 2x2.5" out muffler with dual 3.5" tips would have only a 1/2" gap between the tips, so it would look very similar to the one on the red car pictured above. The reason I'm thinking of a big-ass dual outlet muffler is because I want something...

I'll look into that Magnaflow, although they have fiberglass packing. I saw this photo of a polished magnaflow in the other thread. Although the inlet is too small at 2.5", the dual 3.5" tips don't appear too large, which made me consider the borla idea.

Here's a very rough and quick photochop of the car widened. I will be running 10.5" rims and 295/35/ZR18's in the rear.

My Megan muffler has a very loud drone at cruising speeds and I'm considering a Borla muffler because it's the only brand I know of that uses stainless steel packing inside instead of fiberglass which always burns out and gets louder over time. The options are a bit limited for a 3" inlet and...

What do you figure they use at the oil change places when they offer you an "engine flush"?

I find that the positioning of the rear speakers in the Mk3 is so far back and by pointing up, they do a good job of filling in the sound without affecting the frond sound stage too much. I prefer to be "surrounded" by sound, myself.

The mock-up photoshop looks kick-ass. Is that chameleon paint on there now? I notice a major lack of furniture and stuff in your photos. Do you live in a semi-empty house eating macaroni so you can put every penny into the car? :)

50 watts RMS (real watts) is often called 100 or 150 MAX or PEAK watts. 2x50 RMS is tons for 5 or 6 inch speakers. Many house amplifiers put out 2x50! RMS is continuous output, the number that equates to real-world use. Many amp makers will measure the shortest (millisecond) power spike an...

On SF a member said this: "I just cut the violet wire going to the yellow box........no more warning light." Any risks in doing this?

I think the only way to really see if deposits are coming off is with a mini-cam down the spark plug hole before and after.

Can you swap the 3rd brake light wiring to the LED brake light without issues, or do you need a different lamp sensor box?

Do you also need the 89+ interior hatch trim panel? I thought I read that somewhere because of the different 3rd brake light.

When?

275's fit perfect without bulging, and are plenty fat.

I've driven a 200 hp NA, and my new 87 is 393 hp. The difference is immense and will sway you towards keeping the car! "Peppy" and "Hauls ass" are two different worlds.

I'm thinking of trying out a service that Canadian Tire offers called Terraclean. http://www.terraclean.net/whatistc.htm

I agree, it's so easily missed now compared to before. At the bare minimum, the text should be "flashing" at least.
