Those who add horsepower to their cars are fools!!!

After reading ToYLeT902's thread I realized that I had way to much horsepower. Everytime I hit the gas pedal, I would just burn the tires off the rim. Trying to drive the speed limit is impossible and I was getting real tired of just blowing the doors off everyone who wanted to race me.

After having all this horsepower for about 2 years and several bolt-ons, I decided to not only go back to stock power but I also added a cat-back system to reduce unwanted power. What I did was just after our stock high flowing y-pipe I went with a 1" pipe all the way back to a stock muffler which I welded one of the tips closed to increase backpressure.

The result is amazing! My car can now only break loose the tires after a neutral/drive drop! I no longer have to worry about either getting anywhere near the speed limit, or ever seeing the headlights of those pesty ricers again! Just imagine the money saved of tires now!



Finally it all makes sense to me now!



ToYLeT902, JK!
