ummmm, everyone knows you can't change muffler bearings without flow testing your O-pipe first, duh!

I thought that was common knowledge...



That only works if the headlight fluid is full though...

Yes the turbo might be spinning a bit faster but when you talking changes between 5 and 10psi it wont be changing that much in RPM like another 40,000rpms where the oil will maybe flow more.

Definetely want as straight down as possible and short. Not like down and around some parts like an engine mount like some "installers" believe is better.

I still love the polished piping. Is it polished or chromed? cause even the welds look like they are bling bling.

i can add insight on one thing i do know.. and that is that they piping is all polished. Needs to be dipped in chrome or it will rust up, especially with all the heat and condensation in an engine bay.

looks better than powdercoated or unpolished though.

It works optimally if you install the Flux Capacitor.

That's the rice cooker. You can get that any local oriental store. $15-500.
