    car running bad

    got a 01 v6 that is hesitating when i take off and on the highway the car bucks. i put a cold air intake and put strieght pipes with flowmaster mufflers and had no problems as soon as i put a set of shorty headers thats when the problems started any ideas as to what it could be.

    Fathom the odd hypocrisy that Obama wants every citizen to prove they are insured, but people don't have to prove they are citizens.

    If you voted for Obama in 2008 to prove you weren’t a racist, you’d better vote for someone else in 2012 to prove you’re not an idiot.

    The Navy SEALS removed one Muslim threat to America ...
    It's up to the voters to remove the other!
