    Meh, it was a heads up for what it's worth.

    For me personally I'm going through them to replace the exhaust from the headers back on my 93 project, why not have the best of minute gains if you're going to replace them anyway :rolleyes: haha if not, oh well. . .

    OOOOHHH!!!

    Read the thread.

    LCE's good shit. If these are Tri-Y, I'd certainly be interested.


    Of course, I live in Kalifornistan, so even if they do make them, and even if they are Tri-Y, there's no way in hell they'll get enough business out of California to justify the $20,000 that it would cost them to get them on the CARB approved list.

    The problem is you can't tune the engine to take advantage of either.
    URD is one of the few tunes that actually works, and it only operates when the system is in open loop, meaning WOT and only WOT.
    No help at all for fuel economy or part throttle torque for towing.

    LOL!

    The first time my father put a wrench in my hand, oil filters were still cartridges in canisters, radios were AM-only with pushbuttons, 8-tracks were high tech, and air conditioning was a dealer-installed option that took up the leg room in the middle of the front seat, and trunks were big enough for a Marshall stack.

    Pretty much nothing.
    It'll breathe a little easier, but without a tune that can take advantage of the parts, it's not going to be able to adjust the mixture to gain much of anything.
    Worst case, it leans out and you lose power... but the sound will make it feel more powerful (because you'll be driving with more throttle).

    LOL!

    No kidding.

    KFI was hit radio, Lohmann & Barklay mornings.

    Oh ya, and who from LA doesn't remember:
    KEZY-FM Kicks Back - KEZY-AM Kicks ASS

    First time I ever remember hearing "ass" on public airwaves... that was in 1979.

    Somewhere in my garage, I have Cheech & Chong's Wedding Album, and Aerosmith Toys in the Attic.

    Those were the only 8-tracks that I actually bought... the rest I recorded from my vinyl.

    I think I have amplified/active hearing protection for the gun range that's smaller than those old Panasonic's.

    Just to let you know, I have been on here for the last 4 hours or so researching fog lights. Trying to get the nerve to do it myself. I got a pair of OEM fogs, ($100), OEM switch w/harness, ($70), OEM relay, ($45). Jus gotta get the wire. Wish me luck. Put in the wiper stalk last week.

    $45 for a fucking relay?

    Yikes... but you made up for it at $100 for the lights. That's dirt cheap.
