    Do you know if having cats makes it cooler at the tail pipe? That could be part of my problem as well

    Good morning John!
    Good morning Matt!
    Good morning Bill!

    Y’all have a good one:thumbsup:

    Not sure on that one, I'm not even sure if I have a cat in this or not. Too low for me to crawl under it...

    Added an intermittent wiper stalk today. It came out of a 2011 Scion tC and cost about 71 bucks on flea bay vs the 130-140 for a new one. Even had some light rain today and got to test them out.

    I used a 3 speed fix intermittent from a Yaris sedan in my '09 and a variable intermittent from a Camry in my '13

    I think I got the variable one from a Yaris in my last one for $20 from a pick and pull yard

    Good morning Johnny boy
    I was surprised myself but yet we got a few inches! It was enough that the road was covered. I went and drove around some and the truetrac really helped in the snow, you just have to really keep your foot out of it. And good morning my friend!

    Yall have a great day! Looks like the weather is going to be beautiful today

    Great manifold!

    Always clean installations from you. Good theory on the problem with the trapped gases on the exhaust, especially if you ragged on it for any period of time. My re-worked exhaust now has a fourth muffler and a turn-down to weld in, however right now it’s pointing straight at the axle. I haven’t seen any issue with the axle, no soot collecting or signs of overheating metal on the casing. So I think a turn-down will be enough tbh.

    Dude. You have way more snow now than we do up here. It’s been just over freezing the past few days (desperately need to wash the truck now but really shouldn’t because it’ll just look the same after 24 hours)
