    Will Fire her Up on Monday
    « on: April 07, 2007 - 11:49:06 AM »
    Well, finally got things ready to fire her up on Monday, after spending the winter refreshing things up.   First time doing this... VERY EXCITING!    (I'm not going to place it up there with the birth of my two sons -- but.... certainly better than when they shipped me off to Vietnam!)    Some pics of before/after attached..

    looks like a good price.  How was the shipping?  Seems like the 2.5" system w/o muffs is 320USD+-.

    I "negotiated" a bit on the whole kit, including the shipping (I think I paid like $50-60 US$ for shipping (all the way across country from BC to Vermont!).   The guy I worked with was quite nice... and he shipped it out very quickly (although, since it is international, it did get hung up a few days in-transit).

    Nice!  Looks great!  I love the green color. 

    And I can relate to how much more exciting starting that car would be rather than being shiped off to war!!!
