I agree.In person it sounds like complete ass its actually good untill about 3500-4200.in that range it gets ricey as hell.Hopefully the 3 inch and resonator will eliminate that.And thanks

Front Pedders are on. Stabilizer bar nut decided to just spin the stud on the driver side so it took twice as long as it should have. I got pretty close to the "cut it the fuc* off" stage. Finally got it by notching the end of the stud with a dremel and using a screw driver to keep it still while turning the nut with locking pliers. Sucked.
Gonna grab a beer and move on to the back.

well id go with MH1's.. they are overall more reliable, better quality, more customizable, and brighter.. but their price reflects that.. worth it tho imo
