oh, btw


Random observation of my car last night/this morning: If you know me, you know that i like keeping things low pro - if it's gonna make noise, make sure it's a good noise. I was debating last night about how bad i want an exhaust now. I love my midpipe - but i'm not all that thrilled about the rasp. . . That is til i started to listen to it on the freeway - i got up next to the sound wall on the far right lane on the 22 fwy. I lowered the gear and punched it - the rasp kicked in but then so did my intake and DAMN........I gotta say that combo sounds ******' sweeeeeeeeet! I couldn't get enough of it - i smashed the gas, doin' about 125 til i got to my exit - the sound is very familiar to my old FC w/a straight pipe - it's definitely far from a sound that normal motorists would like or part-time enthusiasts... honestly it's a sound that only a certain select few understand and appreciate -

/rant

point of story: I love rx8's
