after coming back from rockstars house, he kinda convinced me to talk to my exgf again.
i started talking to her and set up some dates trying to impress her.

bitch never showed and i had gotten drunk. came home and missed a turn. ate the curb.

no car. no girl. and all i got out of it was some long hair and I dont even care.



I no care. I luv it!

I know you're good and all but I lost one of my best friends to some bullshit. Don't fall into the same shit. His ended drunk and off a cliff in a jeep, started with proposing and getting rejected by his girl.

I know better than going back to an ex.
rockstar was so convincing tho.
I also know better than to drive intoxicated.

that month was pretty stressful, I still havent fixed my garage door since December...
and thats why I just need a little help from dennis with his rim. Just a few more days till the shop fixes the car.

I just needed a little help thats all.
I'm almost back to 100 percent. almost, if dennis stops stressin me

yep, I learned my lesson last time.

i chose the shop that newman(nspec_ya4) recommended. the shop owner and newman are close buddies, and even i started to become friends with Joe, the shop owner.


what I think is happening is Honda shipping the parts back and fourth taking 2 weeks to get to the shop to only realize its the wrong fucking part...

stupid honda changing part #'s

yep, fixing the rear dent as well.

Joe, no...not you butt the owner, had the car a month prior to me calling it in. he advised me to call in only the suspension damage, and said he would hook me up with the rear without claiming it.

we'll see. I dont even care any more!! lol
i just want my GD car back.

Hey Austin folks, who's the local choice to do header installation? (I don't have the tools, space, or desire to do it myself.)

I did. I used the NTB (of all places) in Cedar Park. They did it for book rate, 2.7 hours I think it was. No problem.

2.7 hours.. so they swapped them in half an hour and went on a 2 hr lunch break on your dime. Sounds about right..



You notice anything on the butt dyno after the swap?

I haven't heard anything bad about NTB at least. They upsell like all the others but seem pretty fair otherwise.

Oddly enough, not really. I noticed more from VSA delete and 4" intake than I did after the header install. I'm thinking I need to pull the primaries and gasket match.

I'm guessing the flow is already pretty good on the backend. You'll probably notice the most at the top end. I'm sure there are some gains down low but in the single digits.

Most shops will do a straight swap. Just call around. Also call shops who do digital alignment and see if they'll throw in the alignment for free + realignment 30 days to 1 year down the road.

Well chtrcy and distorted are the OG's here.. I haven't seen them post in a while though. I might be the only active member in the area but I don't go to local meets all that often. Willing to help when asked though..

Why is taper quitting.. because he sold the Acura?
