    Just like a lot of cities, there are ghetto areas and nice areas. Lived there for 12 years in a great neighborhood before we moved and my in-laws have been there for 30. I'm sure there are a handful of guys on this thread from Oceanside but @Taco Love you're welcome to PM me if there's a particular area you're looking at - I don't know the whole town but will share what I know if I can.

    Well then do the exhaust and the headers later then just the front part needs to be modified when you do get headers, besides I always cut off the header flanges and put different ones on anyway that dont require gaskets or leak (V-bands).

    That's where I weld on V-bands in place of standard flanges with single conventional tubing. But on your rig (Because of the header to mid-pipe design) you could just butt weld on to the stock piping until you do the header with no extra flange until further back where you want a break point.

    That's what I was planning on doing before I moved and had a welder. It doesn't look too bad but you car hear it. I have two round mufflers in a row and they hang past the frame which is a little annoying
    Def wanna upgrade the exhaust, but still on a job search haha
