    All depends on what kind I can find. The only issue is an explorer engine means more wiring.

      I can't wait to see this come together. I don't remember if you already posted it but, what are you doing for headers?

        I actually just figured out my exhaust, its a bit retarded but If I'm shooting some flames with a cam... I'm doing shorty headers, that come together and meet, exit on the drivers side and run straight to the passenger side. It will go through the area where the charcoal canister or whatever it is used to sit, and will exit through the passenger fender. The straight part will be flanged so I can run a resonator/ flex pipe/ straight pipe, and quickly change out.

        Like this but higher up: http://honda-tech.com/attachment.php...1&d=1248454713

        Its the only way I'll have room for any sort of muffler, I have less than 3 inches to the subframe(which it has to go under).

            the prob with the 302s is running pipe back is damn near impossible. I talked to my exhaust guy yesterday and we were thinking of a y pipe right off the pass and running 2.5 or 3" out the pass side.

              Exactly, The only real option is running oval piping. So I figured I'd fulfill my lifelong dream of a fender-dump exhaust :pimp:

                Selling my wheels tonight :( I for one am going to miss them. I think I'm going to be going with some 15x10 949 racing wheels until I can get a spare set of old school jdm wheels. For right now, I need grip over style

                        You know what ruins your day? Finding out one of the Po's swapped your 4.10lsd for an open 4.10

                                I thought they came standard? Either way, I was told it had an lsd at the time of purchase. Either way. I'll weld it up for now, and my friend is going to give me his 4.01lsd when he swaps his 3.25lsd in.
