    I clay bared my entire truck and gave it a good coat of wax. The paint is super smooth now. Cleanest it's ever been since it was new![​IMG]

    I used the Rustoleum high performance enamel on top of rust preventative primer.

    Both sprays.

    Maybe come touch up time I'll use brush on.

    45acp has a Magnaflow 18 on his 2.7 and it sounds throaty and meaty. Not ricey at all.

    did you replace the seal or just get a new rack all together? would a "stop leak" do any good here?

    Im gonna have to look that up, thanks :thumbsup:

    I had a flowmaster super 10 on my old 3.4 and thought it sounded pretty clean but from what Ive been reading MF's seem to sound nicer with 4cly

    You have any sound clips?

    I've seen a few headers for sale on here but I'm a derp when it comes to this kinda thing, what do aftermarket headers do other than sound? And what kinda sound do they topically give off?

    Also where do you guys recommend I buy one off? eBay?
