Just watched the video and two thoughts:

1. Your neighbors would HATE me. None of my neighbors have said anything but I gun it in the parking garage every day.

2. If I didn't think it'd come right back to you I'd say we should form the first annual "Nick's Neighborhood Drive". There would be a full APB out for us, especially if Phaedon's RX8 gets put back together and Jeff brings the S50.

HAHAHA i think thatd be true if we did that.. its a shame I cant go to the swap meet this weekend!!

Get exhaust piping from Summit if your gonna have a friend weld it up. Its like $14 for a 4 foot section of piping. Throw in a Turbo Muffler and a Glasspack (My set up) and it sounds pretty good. For wicked cheap too.

I want to see someone shave off all the weird tabs and dividers on m5x. Then a nice powder coat or paint would really bring it out

meh i might not go to the extreme of shaving it lol.. but powder coat yes!
