Re: Tow a boat?? (Stang2Vibe)

I towed my Jet Ski last season and it weighs about 1000lbs. I had no problems with it. The boat launches around here are real steep and that wasnt even a problem. If you have a clutch dont let a friend try to to pull it out, my friend did a number on mine

If you use the two together no if it is just one or the other it will be louder. The resonator also helps change the exhaust note.

Re: Flowmaster 40 series (dmitri)

I paid $140.40 with tax. Not to bad, another place in town would have put me near $200. I think I am going to replace the 40 with 60. The 40 has a hollow sound to it with a slight rasp.

Flowmaster 40 series

I just put a 40 series muffler on my GT. It sounds pretty good but I think it coukd be better. I left the stock resonator on thinking it might keep the db level down, it does. I think I might remove it and see if that makes it a little bit more aggressive sounding.

Call DSS and continue to call all the time every time you hear that guy do anything wrong. If you want I can give my mom a call and see what she says. She does crisis intake (social worker) for the county she might have some good ideas. If not, a grenade in his pants will do.

Re: Do you Fart in your Vibe? (Flip-Side)

Try being lactose intolerant. Talking about nasty and painful. I do fart in my vibe and the wife yells but she likes to do it to. The best enjoyment I get out of farting is going onto the flight deck of the C17 while the pilots are locked into their seats and cant move about. Aah the power of milk .
