$ 1,000 ....

i would be hesitant on buying an exhaust used especially if the person lives near the sea and or deals with winter.

something about salt and rust doing dmg on a microscopic level that you may not see.

intakes are one thing since they are generally protected and worst case is you need to get a new set of filters.

i think one would have more worries than molecular level issues on exhaust surface oxidation...?

like getting his own garage and tools?

like your rhinos that you'll be putting up FS soon? =P

but actually that's a good point as well...

why not get intakes + tools?

or if you're OCD paint freak get a porter cable random orbital, some pads, some product (like meguiars) and some waxes, buckets, cloth, premium soaps etc etc etc.

if you were local i would just give them to you.

they're in excellent shape, nothing wrong with them nor the extensions i made. i just wanted a one piece unit that is okay of getting wet.
the extensions i made are wood so didnt want to get them wet and warp..

Scott Stapp was given $1000 for upgrades once. It's not looking like it's going over too well. CHOOSE WISELY, YOUNG PADAWAN.

Since this is still ongoing...... Does adding a high performance exhaust require the engine (computers) to be retuned/reprogrammed?
Thanks

No! N O ! No.

Bah, how old are you? Young I assume? With $1000 I would do 2 HPDE track days with insurance. Best way to make your car faster is driver skill. I wish I started when I was younger.

You will change cars many times in a lifetime. Driving skill stays with you forever.

Seriously underestimating the cost of HPDE lol...

Brake pads, fluid, oil cooler, event costs + insurance, hotel (maybe), food...**** is usually almost $1000 every time I go.

AutoX would be significantly more realistic for a noob.
