I'm finally getting my midpipe installed tommorow, so I would like to have a meet tommorow afternoon. That way we can bask in the gasoline/new midpipe smell, haha.
Not sure what all of your schedules are like though.

yea, it was really shitty out today, getting to the auto shop sucked. I did get the midpipe on though, it sounds really nice, even though i couldn't take it much past 4k rpm without losing traction hehe. Feels like i went through a lot of fuel just on the drive back for some reason.

Good luck with getting the new engine installed Adam.

Mid pipes most of the time require a tune to run efficiently on fuel. FYI.
Been busy with work guys sorry. Um did my military physical hopefully I go back downtown Tuesday and get cleared to leave.

yea adam, its a shop that i work at so i know most of the people their. So like four of us threw the car up on the lift and knocked it out in like 10 mins hehe.

And thanks for letting me know about the mpg issue bignatex, i guess i can add that to the list of reasons why i should get a cobb.

Yep I should have waited. Would have taken it for 9, but it is red. I keep getting CEL errors and ABS light went on 2 months after I got it and Mazda would not honor the warranty that the used car dealer that I got the car from, due to previous owners engine swap not being done correctly.

So since everyone seems to want to do a meet, how about we get something going for April 9th. If this works for everyone say something if not say something, after we find out if its a go or not we can decide on a location, but FOrest Park seems to work well.

The 16th is a weekday, which is pretty much a no go for me. I can really only meet up on friday or saturday nights.
