I want but... i need to get financially situated... anybody know how easy it is to take off ur cat. and straight pipe it thru a glasspack?

You might be able to get some clamps to do the exhaust with, but you are better off finding someone who can weld have them put it together.


SRT-4s are nice, but I doubt I would ever own one. I'd much rather have a turbo 1st gen coupe, and it would only cost half the money.

I love my SRT If I did it again I would buy used can save a bunch
