looks like joe is gettin SLP and DS S3 CAI...GIGGITY!

EDIT - what are your guy's thoughts on getting rid of the resonator? (and how tough is it?)

Warthog · 03-17-2005, 10:32 PM

i got rid of my resonator when i put the magnaflows on. it's super easy...it gets chopped off and replaced by a straight pipe...any shop could do it in 5 minutes

xxbackhillxx · 03-18-2005, 03:56 AM

i thought the slp piping comes resonator-less

AaronGTR · 03-18-2005, 08:34 AM

yeah, slp comes with no resonator. Has 2.5" mandrel bent pipig thru out. Only thing is it comes with a 2.25" flange for bolting up to the stock cat. If you switch to a high flow cat with a 2.5" outlet thought you can cut it off and have a 2.5" flange welded on. It's not a big deal until you change the cat though.

joe am selling my SLP let me know if you want it

notsoaveragej0e · 03-19-2005, 08:14 AM

i just bought a year old SLP and S3 intake off of BoyZero for $425 shipped, so im good to go (but thanks for the offer Joe). I didnt know whether or not the slp had a resonator, i just assumed it did. a buddy of mine took his cat off completely, any ideas?

Hodge · 03-19-2005, 09:23 AM

yeah get some pictures up of the tints and then lets meet when you get all that installed

AaronGTR · 03-19-2005, 11:13 AM

Don't take the cat off completely. It will be obnoxiously loud and will not sound good. There's not much gain to be had from it anyway on a car without headers, and high flow cat will work just as well as no cat, and without polluting. No need to run without a cat on a daily driven car.

blah now i have a leak!! sun of bi0tch i think it's my window seal

notsoaveragej0e · 03-20-2005, 07:52 PM

steve (ndprunner22) got busted for tinted windows today by a state trooper - only a week with the tint on and hes popped... was this a good idea?

xxbackhillxx · 03-20-2005, 08:23 PM

was he speeding?

Hodge · 03-21-2005, 05:12 AM

if you dont do anything wrong you shouldnt just randomly get pulled over

xxbackhillxx · 03-21-2005, 05:14 AM

he had tint on, thats an infraction right there. i bet he was speeding or doing something stupid to cause the officer to take notice and pull him over for another infraction. i've never been pulled over just for tint.

DaytonaPrixMI · 03-21-2005, 10:34 AM

The state just passed some new legislation that is cracking down on tinted windows. So that might be part of it.

Doctors notes must now be approved by the state.
If you get approved you must be driving in a car with tints at ALL times
If you get pulled over in a car without tints you lose your exception

Also I have heard that OCS is goign to start cracking down on tinted windows, so be on the look out, and don't do anything stupid that will give you away aka speeding!

Hodge · 03-21-2005, 10:38 AM

thanks ryan, i'm gonna have to get the state information. and then could i legally tint my parents cars?

Hodge · 03-21-2005, 10:55 AM

basically i need to get a doctors note, and then show up at the secretary of state saying they need to get this approved so i can legally have window tint? i need to get this done or i'm probably gonna have to take it off soon which will suck. I love having tint because i just feel more private.

another question is if i get my parents cars tinted ( i drive them all the time ) and they get pulled over is it ok? i like tint and i would love to have it on all the cars, i just need to get a doctors note.

ndprunner22 · 03-21-2005, 12:00 PM

ok was driving at normal speed seriously nice and normal and i am going over an overpass. I see a state trooper on the merger ahead and i just change lanes to hope i dont line up next to him. Then my luck strikes the 3 ppl next to me merge on 1-75 from baldwin and im sitting there with this cop next to me. The light is red and im just sitting there praying. Look at the lights is green. i like nice. look in the rear view and red flashers. i was like ok maybe its just retiuen so i put down my windows*(mistake) he comes up and i say was i doing anything wrong sir??
and he goes " Im tired of kids like you tring to hide your tints, i saw your tints way back over the overpass. So then i just admit, ok sir im sorry i have had the tints for a while and recently found out their illegalness. then he writes me a ticket. he come back and says im giving you this for reason, because you tried to hide the tints. He is like i would have given you waring but now your gettin the ticket.

My outtake: He was a ****-State Trooper coming off the highway
only pulled me over cuz i was right next to him
he was lieing about the warning because i asked at the begininng and he didnt budge. Either way if you get pulledover
keep windows up and say you have had the tints since you got the car in another state.

* I had them for a week*i guess the fine is waived if i remove the tint and have it inspected by an officer. sounds good no points or fines, just 20 bucks to get the sides off
