So on the shitty exhaust mod front I moved down to 1 washer if anyone is curious.
35 mph cruise, 4th gear before/after, much quieter:

Battery cables for tightness, my sisters car had some funky electrical issues and stalling because the ground wasn't tightened properly. Hopefully thats all it is, electrical gremlins are never fun.
I once had my speedo and tach go all crazy after installing a new starter on my old 94 Z28, ******* Autozone rebuild. The gear didn't disengage, so I started driving the starter with the motor (like an alternator) and it must have been feeding voltage (unregulated) through the electrical system. Burned the starter out quickly, which on a related note a burned out starter smells AWFUL. Oh, it got worse I return that starter and get another Autozone rebuild, this one starts the car, but when I shut the car off the starter gear had disengaged but was still spinning. Checked the wiring, voltages and connections were correct...returned that one, had the old one rebuilt at a local alternator/starter shop and that one worked fine.

So, is anyone debating on starting a hockey playoff beard this year besides me? It is being debated in my mind, I did one last year and it was fun, this year I'm debating.
Last year here is what I ended up with (I had trimmed it a few times to even out the growth):

MM possible my car is super loud and i have black rims with a lot of stickers. The story about the stickers is they started off as a joke and now ive just kinda kept them on... Kinda like joe dirts mullet, you no he just never got around to cutting it. I just never have gotten around to taking them off.
