Re: Interior Painting... Need Help Please
Im getting an exhaust on my 2001 tib in a couple weeks... but im not familiar with exhaust upgrades WHAT SO EVER.
so far im getting a cat back exhaust, the palce im taking it to claims a dual exhaust system will not fit without other modifications.
will get HP from a NON stainless steel cat back exhaust system... or is stainless steel a must?

Exhaust Question
stainless steel is the smartest way to go, i believe. it makes the most sense
dual exhaust is pretty damn poinless on unboosted 4 cylinder engines. i would, as would most, recommend you not doing that.
to check out aftermarket ones, visit this thread <span style="color:red">here</span>

SS is not a must. Probably the biggest advantage of SS is that it won't rust.
Another advantage is it will keep exhaust gases and their temperatures inside the tube more efficient, therefore increasing gas velocity, therefore eliminating back pressure, therefore making more power; but if you are getting a catback I assume that the piping will be bigger than stock piping, which pretty much should take good care of evil back pressure.
Regular mild steel is perfectly fine as long as it's mandrel bend.

Re: Official Tibathon 2005 Information
yeah man check that link and see what we got going on. Try 2.5" piping that'll prolly be the best for your NA setup.

Did you already buy an exhaust or are you going to get one? If not, you may want to wait a bit as there looks like there's gonna be more exhaust available for us in the near future.
