That would be me. And ask anyone at the Cal meet, you could here the
rattling when you first start accelerating. I am still waiting for one to
come in. Dealer says its on backorder, been almost 2 weeks now. I want a
high flow, but am not willing to pay the $$. Well let me rephrase that, I
don't have the $$. Maybe if I bitch, they will give me a high flow cat free
of charge bwahahahaha. . yeah right
