Look on eBay, man. Good deals on there for used tires if you can't find a full set of used ones at Discount Tire or similar.

Bought a Badmab shorty and zzp 2.5 catted today. This will be my third down pipe.

I've been at WMU since 2009, had a Turbo Cavi sedan for a while that I built. Recently sold it last fall, now just driving a lowered 07 LS.
ah, my brothers out there he ran in to some guy who had a cobalt SS that was modded. turbo cavi, any times ran with it?

Sounds good. My car runs slow as **** right now, because the cat is clogged and if I rev near 4k, it'll start to misfire like crazy.

Did I see one of you guys on the weekend of the 9th on hall road and you got off on Rochester rd going south?

I drive a Silver balt lt w/ Chevy mud flaps, tow hooks and I had the snows and steels on it.

Just got a tc grill from CED and next mod is SC kit. From the looks of things I'm gonna have to invest in a trans cooler. I'm hoping my tranny dies between now and then tho so I can get a new one under warranty

Good news. I guess that's what I get for buying a used stock downpipe with like 100k+ miles on it. My new downpipe will be here today! 1 day shipping from ZZP, thank goodness. Still waiting on my badmab header tho. Speaking of.. Did you get a shipped notification or something? I haven't gotten anything from them yet.

they were fast to send me the wrong one but brad fixed it. he had to send back the shipment he had and argue with the supplier to fix the order. the whole ordeal took about 6 months

Just a trans cooler would prolly work fine, but if you wanted to go crazy I'm sure you could rig up a killer chiller for it
