    Take the ISBNs for the books and go on bookrenter.com and rent the ones yoi can, it saved me about $130 my first semester. Just did it again for this semester, had to buy two books from the bookstore though.

    I used to wait to buy books till a week or so into class so I could figure out the ones that I'd really need and the ones I could do without. You can save a lot of money by buying them on Amazon too

    I went to uncg for a few years and couldn't figure out what I wanted to do and it was getting expensive so I took a break and worked. Ended up landing a good full time job so I'm taking classes online now. Just need one more and I'll have my associates in business admin. Dont really wanna do that either but I gotta get something.

    Swanks, I am most likely removing my flowmaster 50 series single in dual out. I might sell it to you if you want it.

    But if I don't reuse the pipe from it then I might be able to sell the system as a partial cat-back to a fellow 1st gen

    Going with the 40, but appreciate it. Going to get a single in dual out muffler, get it welded on and go with that for a bit until I can afford the pipes which will be about feb.

    Yeah I figured since you said you wanted louder.

    Anybody have recommendations on a good sounding muffler? Magflow vs Flowmaster?

    Thinking I am going to stay away from buying a flowmaster this time around, Chris4x4's dyno test showed that they give you a loss in power unlike the others.

    I will probably get the Dynomax Super Turbo if the local shop has one in stock

    I'm about to order this one here in a minute, and then go to Easy Muffler and get it welded in.

    It'll probably sound pretty good. :thumbsup:

    I just wish the 3.4 sounded like the chevy 4.3 V6. My buddies ZR2 sounds like a damn V8 when he cranks it up
