*Info on Mods*

Well i have a couple of ideas for my car...it may seem like many different things at once but i just need some feed back and some ideas. One thing i was wanting to do is an exhaust system, i was wandering which is the best and what id the best price for it. Another thing is a profprmance chip..once again what kind is the best and what is the best price. For the exhaust what i really want is a deeper sound thats adds alittle HP, and for the chip i was lookiing for about 20 HP improvement. If i could get some feedback and some ideas that would be awesome!!!

I definitely have to reccomend the Borla exhaust. I've had mine for about a month now and LOVE it. Much deeper tone. Loud when you want it to be, and quiet when you don't. Looks good, too.

so because he has one post gives him an excuse not to search on a topic that has been discussed before? c'mon.

hopefully it will sink in eventually and we can lessen the endless garbage that litters this site.

No, I don't think it is an excuse, I just think you are a little abrasive in your approach, especially for someone who has posted one time. Say you took a new job, and they knew you had no experience when they hired you. How would you feel if you asked your supervisor, whom you've known for a day or two, how to do a part of your job, and he jumped your *** and told you to go read a manual on the subject? I doubt you'd appreciate it. It would just make you afraid to ever ask another question.

I would sure feel like an *** if the question I asked was in the company handbook that they gave me when they hired me.

I am not saying EVERYTHING that is asked of new members is wrong, but the most common questions that have been discussed thousands of times could be so quickly answered had they simply clicked a button called SEARCH and typed in their question.

I understand what you are saying, but a company's employee handbook probably isn't going to tell you specific things about your job that you need to know. That's not really what those handbooks are designed to do. But that's neither here nor there. I'm not trying to come down on you, because I have a really sarcastic and dry sense of humor, and I think alot of the stuff you say is funny as hell. I just think you'll attract more flies with honey than with vinegar. I don't know why you would want to attract flies, but it sounded good.

Am I sensing some of the aforementioned Mugatu sarcasm?
