Swapped out my B&B resonator for the x-pipe...

Tell ya what.

You get a set of B&B longtubes and I got a great pair of gaskets for ya.

GRATIS.

With copper being what it goes for, that is a heck of a deal.

That will bite you in the arse soon enough, but you probably aren't married yet and trying to sneak in after hours.

LOL. Let's hope that offer is still open in a couple years.

I'm still in school and living at home with my parents. The car does get garage space, and I do come home late at night sometimes. However, I only drive my car if I know it won't rain. I might get some crap from the parents next summer when I come home around 2am lol.

My g/f hated the droning on the resonator setup, but loved the "acceleration noise" (that's what she called it.)

She knew I was getting the x-pipe but hasn't heard it yet. She's really gonna hate it now since the droning is much louder and at a wider range of RPMs lol!

But it's my car and she doesn't really have a say lol. I got a chance to drive Chip's car while ago. He had B&B headers w/ resonator setup. My g/f thought it was too loud but I'm like "WOW! I'M SOLD!!!!"

Funny thing is, I met my g/f when I was in the process of getting the V. She thought I was absolutely brain dead for getting that car. She also likes my '96 Windstar better than the V, LOL.

Speaking of Chip, haven't heard from him in a while, I should e-mail him again.

"Acceleration noise" That's great.

B&B headers with the resonator is the shit. It is loud but civil (in a loud sort of way)

BTW, avoid Chef as much as possible, seeing his car and thinking about it (his car!) makes me want to go out and modify the hell out of mine.

Slippery slope but damn if it's not a fun ride!

Chiming in a little late here, but I'm glad you're enjoying your new sound, Jon.
