Thanks man, not sure if im gonna do the race pipe yet or not. If you wanna sell it off you can go for it.
Im leaning toward the ALTP High Flow after noticing the low end loss even with a J35.

Last weekend at PIR this season is looking to be washed out.

Photos can be done at winter time....ive actually busted my ass on the driveway because water was freezing as i was washing my car last winter....Plus rolling shots with rooster tails coming off the car is badass during rain.

As for snow...already told my boss i wont be able to make it in if it snows, and with PDXmas coming, im gonna add some more neg camber and max out the TEINs.

Well i get off around 230-3 o' clock. I know we live totally opposite directions from each other, and you get off after me.
But then again it all depends on when/if i do my other shoot.

ive busted my ass on 35 degrees days washing the car.. the trick is to get really hot soapy water.. and when you hose it down try not to get any of the hose water on your hands.. then the only suffering part is drying the car off..

im kinda bummed that i couldnt get one more day in for a time trial.. i guess i could wait till march.. by then ill have my pulleys on.. if not.. i will never recommend NST.. the wait isnt worth it haha

you arent riding low unless you drag the muffler pipe and lose youre oil pan.. hehe

make sure to watch out for rocks on the freeway too that will hurt..
plus side though im sure youre getting alittle better gas mileage since you are cutting wind speed

Welcome to Oregon, we dont use Umbrellas! Once you learn how to not get wet standing in the rain, you will be truely converted.

Oh and whats up with Cali and truck drivers always wanting to race me last time i drove through?? I couldnt pass a single pick-up without someone trying to run.

Ive been here for about 3 years now - im not even from the nice part of cali haha - but the rain will get to me after some time...

im actually pretty good at not getting wet - i take the max cuz i work in down town - and standing waiting for the max my hair doesnt even get messed up lol

and trust me i dont own an umbrella nor will i buy one...

and everyone wants to race in cali - or just drive aggressive. i love it - tho ive gotten used to how slow oregon life is - i still drive like im from cali lol

we arent as slow as people from washington driving on the highway.. which i dont get cause they have a higher speed limit than us.. wish they would raise the limit around here.. i think its sad to know everyone that drives on 26 goes about an average of 68mph and most cops wont even pull you over unless you go over 70.. and the speed limit is 55.. i say just raise the F-er to 65 everwhere and the areas that are now 65 make it 75 and eastern oregon should be no speed limit durring daylight and evening should be 80ish haha im running for govenor next year and my slogan is get with the times

Chris, if you want to get some pics before it starts raining tomorrow. Id be down to take some. If you wanna meet up at Bridgeport Village, or even Wash Square Mall we could get some parking garage pics since it will most likely be dark.

Let me know.

Good stuff. You end up getting a 6MT? Also WDP is taking over Oregon.

Get pics before the rain!
