I finally got rid of the annoying bees in the can! WSP sent me some header wrap for the y-pipe. I went to Matt's(Mardigrasmax)place and he installed the header wrap for me. The header wrap that WSP sent me wasn't much, but good thing Matt had extra wraps. Thanks Matt! Now, I finally can enjoy the tone of my y-pipe and exhaust without the dreaded bees. So, those of you who still have bees in the can problem, get some header wrap and wrap that sucker up!


On another note, I got to play around with another Maxima owner when I was coming back from Eastern New Orleans on I-10(for you N.O. peeps) It was a '97-'99 Maxima with rims, but otherwise stock. His back bumper seem to be messed up though. Anyway, we played for awhile and later on, I slowed down enough so I can wave to the guy. He kind of laughed and waved back. I know I could have taken him if I wanted to.

I emailed Dallas awhile ago and never got a reply. So, I thought he just ignored it. I wanted to email him again, but I hold off a bit thinking maybe he didn't email me back, but the wrap was on the way. I was right. I got it a few days later. So, be patience.

The flex section. I think Matt helped me double wrap it for better result. I think the double wrapping worked because I don't hear the bees at all anymore.

Cool, same setup as I'm running. I bought my header wrap from Summit Racing. It was 25 bucks and was enough to do 2 cars. I single wrapped the flex section and the long center section. My car sounds like it has stock exhaust from in the cabin.
