    Man, keep up the good work!  My car is FAR from the state of your car.

    I'll sure miss having purple on my car (original FC7/white car-->pearl sublime or ???).

    Looks really nice!  Just enough room to get that drive shaft back in there.  We're planning on getting our TTI system on next week (I know our neighbors will be very thankful!).

    Ha, ha Rev.  You are breaking in your neighbors the right way!!!!  Ya see, if you were putting your TTI exhaust on after having a crappy one like I had makes the neighbors hate the TTI exhaust (because it is most likley louder than it was before.  In your case, you got them used to the sound of open headers.  To them TTI will sound quiet.  Nothing better than happy neighbors!

    That's very cool how much progress you're making on it.  I'm sure it'll sound great with that exhaust system. :drool:
