Hey Klutch,

Did you end up installing the Richie's Pre-cats?? I was thinking of picking them up too!! Just want your feedback buddy!!

Any plans in getting the J-pipe to compliment it.

Just got back from servicing my vehicle today and I need to change my battery soon. I am thinking of picking up a Optima Battery. Anyone has suggestions to where to go get one for a good price locally? Dam Acura is charging me $160 for battery replacement. I said screw that I am not paying that much for one unless it is an Optima battery.

optima's go for around 200 dollars or so

go to lordco try to talk the guy into a discount if you dont have a account with them... the guys at the marine drive location always give good deals...

or you can try asking jason at ground zero if he can get you one

i just put a optima yellowtop in like a week or two ago, i think it was around 2bills at lordco, my buddy works there and just put it under an account.

and for your earlier question about the jpipe, yes i am eventually gonna get that too, theres a group buy for the xlr8 jpipe right now its going for $390, its tempting....

You think your buddy can give me the same price you got it for? I was thinking of the yellowtop too. This will be my 3rd freaking battery as the OEM ones suck ass. Everyone here don't waste your $$ on an OEM battery because it only lasted me like 2yr avg...LOL!!

Speaking of J-pipe XLR8 pipe is the one to go for but is not slammed friendly. For me I have to opt for the ATLP j-pipe because I am lowered more than 2inches.

Let me know your PCD works out. The only thing I am afraid of is the check-engine light going on all the time. That is what happend to the V1's I think. How much did you end up paying for it after everything is said and done?

Ok let me know about the Optima batery.

$345 is pretty good. It is a good time to buy from USA since our dollar is close to par with them.

Ed,

I went to Jason for an Oil change and it went very well.

He's a nice guy for sure
He also topped up my steering fluid cuz i was abit low and check my tire pressure too for free.

Definitey give Jason a call.

Thanks Kdawg and Vancity TL for a great referal.
