longtubes getting put on
So hopefully i will get my longtubes, o/r h pipe, and super 40's installed either friday or this weekend. I'm pretty excited but i was wondering if you will really notice the gains from the longtubes? Anything is better then the mac's and 2" tips i have right now

Well they cut the bung for it and took mine out, now it's throwing 2 codes because of it. not to mention the horrible gas mileage i'm getting 30 miles to 1/4 of a tank. They never called and aksed me about it either before they did it.

30 miles to 1/4 of a tank? are you sure your not just flooring your car everywhere you go so you can hear what the longtubes did? haha.. maybe that was just me :P i went through a tank of gas in a couple of days haha but now im back to driving normal with normal gas milage... but idk what to tell you about that egr.. they kept mine on there because i remember he had to tighten it at the very end..

Long tubes will have an effect on gas mileage however and you should have your car tuned.

you dont HAVE to spend the 400$ for the tuner. your car will still run fine withtout it but it just runs alot better with the tuner! my idle was probably the worst part of longtubes without a tuner (since they took my cats out my idle was very rough)

Lethal took out my egr without telling me they were, that's why i need a tune. Been tring to get in touch with danny for 2 weeks now but he seems to never be there daily.

And this is known. To me this sounds like he modded the car without actually knowing the effects it would have. Alot of persons that mod there cars expect a decrease in gas mileage.

misunderstanding
This is a misunderstanding when you dropped your car off with all your parts you gave us the caps for the headers.You supplied the caps but I guess they welded them so the caps wouldnt come off.I told you to come by and we can fix it .I have been gone for the last 2 weeks so sorry about that.Just call my cell phone and I will set an appointment its 535-4299 .
