I watched it all lol. There's use to be a hill like that in Muskegon. I believe it was called the Widow Maker.

Yea the Thumpers (4Strokers) broad power band pretty much dominated in that vid. Didn't sound like anyone had a 500 (Two Stroke) out there. Sounded more like 250's. The Four strokers were 450's for the most part. Some of those guys flew up that hill. That was fun to watch.

Those old pop machines and slot machines are gold mines.....
I'm thinking about going with a magnapak or bullet to replace the resonator and a borla pro xs to replace the muffler......

People here seem to like Borla and I have to admit they sound dang good. I'd probably go for those if I wasn't so cheap and didn't like my straight pipes.

Coke is a brand but coke is not.

Come down to the Huddle House and ask for a pop and the waitress is liable to pop ya one.

Do you have anything on it now or is it still the stock exhaust?

The P.O. put a Magnaflow on the truck and I do like the way it sounds. I do agree that Borla's sound good but I'm cheap too so Magnaflow it is

Then there's that annoying little exhaust leak.....

Congrats 88!

Matt if you need help, let me know

We call it soda here... ditto on what Matt said. Coke unless it's the soda, isn't what you'd want around here

Thanks John! I remember talking to you a month or so ago when I was going to do it but life got in the way and it got put on the back burner. Now I forget what all we talked about
